Speaking of candy, other than gummi candy, I really like Rowntree's Fruit, which I have not seen in the U.S. for quite a number of years. Great stuff - except it probably accounts for the numerous fillings I have in my molars. | |

| Haribo macht Kinder froh,
Und Erwachsene ebenso....
So spake Sabreur:
Other than good gummies, dark chocolate is the only candy.

| Well, whaddya know?
Back to candy though, dark chocolate is really great. Don't know if any of you have Trader Joe's (probably not in Europe) but they have a dark chocolate sampler box with Madagascarene, Ecuadorian and other chocolates that are really great. | |

There's a reason they call it Flagstaff, California.

| Yeah, but it's Flagstaff, Arizona. They just call it part of California now because it's been inundated by Californians moving there...and bringing their, ah, unique worldview with 'em.
