YES! They were the ones that made the cocoa ham!Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

My best friend, currently living in Austria, sent me some artisan chocolate. It contains bacon.
WHY DOES MY CHOCOLATE HAVE PORK IN IT??
What?
I now have to look at my chocolate for meat?

WTF is Germany?
Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”
The world, in the last three hundred years, has not changed except in that sense.
The simple suggestion of a true change scandalizes and terrifies modern man. -Nicolás Gómez DávilaComment

Zotter has great artisan chocolates. They also have some that seem odd or even unacceptable at first, but turn out to be good; then again, a few are simply abominable. They have hundreds of varieties.Originally posted by Starchild

Honestly, I don't know. The only reason I can imagine is to upset muslims.Originally posted by Starchild

(Which surely isn't the case. Zotter uses fair trade chocolate and supports social programs, so I doubt he'd engage in islamophobia).Last edited by Wernazuma III; January 4, 2008, 06:48."The world is too small in Vorarlberg".

Stores in Australia used to be closed on Sundays as well, roughly two decades ago. It was good in one way - the massive carparks would be empty, so us kids could ride bikes and drive remote-controlled cars around.
I much prefer them open every day now, of course.I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).Comment

Here's a great hypocrisy related question?
How many of you Christian Believers-in-God types in the US believe that the shop laws should be tighted to prevent them from opening on Sundays? None?

Not me. I would bet that you aren't going to find any American believers here (or Ben) who would support such a law.Originally posted by MOBIUS
