Have you read “The Chocolate Conspiracy” by New York Magazine’s journalist Rachel Handler? My first thought was “Finally! More people feel the way I do!” I grew up loving Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Snickers, Almond Joys, M&Ms, all of it. My mother allowed no sugar in the house, so I would try to find these treasures in whatever way I could. My best friend Kim’s mother would leave M&Ms in a big bowl in the living room. When I would sleep over, she would find me hiding in a corner of the room with both hands full of chocolate. I wished I could swim in this bowl of heaven, but not anymore. Chocolate from “the big brands” just don’t taste like they used to.
