Same here...it actually seems revolting to be honest. Weird ingredients
for fudge...chili powder, pepper, cinnamon??? I've never even heard of
brown rice syrup?

They're not weird ingredients at all. Have you never heard of chocolate
with chili, pepper or cinnamon? We can get it in all sorts of places here.
And brown rice syrup is a dead common vegan ingredient.

Chili, pepper and cinnamon are not weird ingredients in themselves, but
just not in fudge. I make several pounds of fudge every December, and
many varieties, and have yet to use pepper, chili power or cinnamon in
it. I've seen recipes calling for cinnamon in chocolate cakes and
cookies, but personally I don't think the flavors go well together.

Since I'm not a vegan, I've never heard of brown rice syrup, but it
doesn't sound like something I'd want to put in my fudge either. <shrug>

Me either, but Mexican Ibarra chocolate has chili and cinnamon. And it does
taste good but has no black pepper.

Cinnamon is VERY common in chocolate! Especially Mexican chocolate.

I never said it was weird and I didn't say that I wasn't going to eat any
more of it. I did eat more of it. I said I wasn't going to make it again
for *me*. Said if daughter wanted it, I would make it for her, minus the
nuts. I think the problem for me is the sunseed butter. I really don't
like that. The original recipe called for creamy peanut butter which my
daughter can not eat. I do like peanut butter and this might be good with
that. But seeing as how I don't need to be eating candy, no matter what it
is, it's not too likely that I'll make that either. Not for a while anyway.
The flavor is great! Except perhaps for the sunseed butter. It does remind
me in taste of the chocolate covered sunseeds and I don't like those very
well.

I did not say want to eat it. Did I?

Actually I wish YOU'D go away but you didn't. It did for some reason taste
better tonight. Not sure why.

Not going away. Where in that quote does it say that I will not eat it
again? It does not. And methinks you have more than a little too much time
on your hands if you remember every word that I say.

Saying that I didn't care for it so much is not the same as not liking it.
I don't care for hamburger so much either but I do eat it.
