OK. I Admit It. I Don't Like Chocolate
Does that make me a bad person? I just prefer salty treats rather than sweet. Chocolate in particular is repellent to me. Give me a bag of Lays potato chips any day.

2. Hey! How You Doing?
Glad to know someone else doesn't like choc. A woman at work offered me some Godiva yesterday and when I turned it down she acted like I was some sort of weirdo! Well yeah, I am kinda weird, but I just don't like chocolate. Get over it.

4. Yes!
I'm doing a roast loin of pork with apples tonight for my ex and his daughter. I found a great vinaigrette recipe for the salad too that I want to try tonight.

2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp cassis liqueur
2 tbsp balsamic vineagr
handful of raspberries

blend all ingredients together and drizzle over salad.

I hope it turns out OK!

6. I'll split a bag of chips with you...
Edited on Sat Jun-02-07 10:08 AM by Gormy Cuss
I'd much rather have chips than a slice of chocolate cake. I do like other sweets but have never been a big fan of chocolate or candy.

9. my husband doesn't like it, either, and I can take or leave
chocolate bars... but I'm a sucker for chocolate in cake/brownie form.

My husband LOVES vinegary things. Forget sweet or salty, give him vinegar or really sour things like kimchi and he's happy.

No, you're not a bad person at all, for not liking chocolate.

12. Freak! Freak!
I am pointing and laughing at you.

Actually, I'm a vinegar afficianado, myself. I just learned about strawberries dipped in balsamic vinegar and black pepper. mmmmmmm....
and I like dark chocolate, dark and bitter like my soul.

13. It's not that I don't like chocolate
Edited on Sat Jun-02-07 02:54 PM by BarenakedLady
It's just that I would much prefer other treats. Preferably of the sweet, sour, salty variety.

I used to think I was still a good person ;)

15. I hate milk chocolate
It doesn't taste of anything other than sugar and milk - real chocolate (70% of higher cocoa solids) is gorgeous, but one can't consume very much due to its intensity.

22. I don't like chocolate either
I prefer salty too but there are some sweets I enjoy. Caramel is good, but I prefer to eat sweet/tart and/or fruity type of sweets like nerds, sour patch kids or skittles. Basically Easter was better for me than Halloween in the candy dept as a kid (except for the yucky peeps).

23. I have an ex and an colleague in the same state.
I love the cocoa and chocolate, but they cannot abide a bit of it. To each his/her own, I say.

26. Despising parmesan is sheer brilliance
So as a fellow parmesan hater I'll give you the benefit of a doubt on chocolate, even though I love it :)
