And what's the dubai chocolate about?

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 20 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (4 children)
Main ingredients 
Milk chocolate, Pistachio, Tahini, Kadayif

It lost me at milk, but it sounds like it’s basically milk chocolate with a thickened pistachio puree interior. It’s got like half of my allergies all in one and sounds worse than salted dark chocolate wrapped around a fruit, dried or fresh, with nuts sprinkled on the outside.

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

You are factually correct but I disagree with your opinion.

My condolences for your alergies

I mean, milk chocolates, even premium ones, have always tasted like molten asshole to me. Even long before I developed my allergies. I don’t mean to tell people that their opinions are wrong, but I would hesitate to qualify milk chocolate enjoyers as human

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I think your sense of taste is fucked, and not in an insult way but in a I think your allergy had a precursor affect on your sense of taste. I know folks who prefer say dark choclate over milk but if it legit tasted that bad it may have been a weird physiological thing.

Or youre using hyperbolic speech and I'm showing my fucken autism.

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago

I am being hyperbolic to continue the character, so you’re entirely right to follow the line of thought the way that you did. No, it’s just an effect of rearing. Children raised on processed sugar tend to accept and enjoy it more. It’s just too sweet for my palate and always has been

i had a bar of chocolate that had corn flakes in it as the crunchy bits. it was delightful. kadayif in chocolate sounds great, not so sure about the pistachio or tahini

[–] cheers_queers@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

it is really good but you have to enjoy it for what it is. it isn't supposed to be like a twix bar

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

I don’t think Twix has fruit and nuts, but I take your meaning. It really just doesn’t seem appealing, and I currently have a jar of pistachio cream on my counter.

What? Those certainly are letters in a particular order.

[–] niktemadur@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

The way those letters flowed or stumbled into that particular combination... entropy in action.

I grew up in the nineties (born 84) and lately I've seen some teens wearing baggy pants. And I'm not sure how I feel about that. But I'm an old fart now, so what do I know?!

God I wish I was this cool

I'm guessing Rage Against The Machine, Cradle of Filth, and.. what's the tee on the right?

Conservatism, but make it Millennial.

[–] GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 44 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Childhood nostalgia = conservatism? 🤔

Seems very, difficult to not be at least a little nostalgic these days

even if things were perfect now and the past sucked. it's still normal to feel nostalgic about someone's own childhood.

[–] Velypso@sh.itjust.works 25 points 1 week ago

This.... doesnt make any sense

although nostalgia can be a red flag. just be itself, is just a normal part of life.

if they were blaming some random minority for things being shite now, then that's a problem... unless that minority are the billionaires. fuck em

[–] HazardousBanjo@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Literally nothing political about this post, wtf?

Its a meme (a popular genre) about nostalgia. Its not even hating on newer things, its just ssayibg people from 10-20 years ago wouldn't know what those things are.
