The chocolate brand Tony Chocolonely in the Netherlands has uneven pieces. It's to remind us that the world is unfair.

Yeah, i mean who in their right mind would eat one alone. 👀 In one sitting no less. 🫪

Honestly their main downside. Especially that big piece that you just cannot break into smaller pieces.

FosterMolasses@leminal.space · 1 pts · 79d

Lmao

venusaur@lemmy.world · 44 pts · 80d (19 replies)

Then there are people who don’t snap pieces off and just bite it across the grooves like some sort of feral creature.

ttyybb@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 80d (6 replies)

The correct way is to rotate it 90° then enjoy.

You must take a bite from the middle of a hot dog you savage beast.

mybuttnolie@sopuli.xyz · 12 pts · 80d (4 replies)

everyone knows the correct way to eat a hotdog is to suck the weiner out and eat it first, then lick the ketchup and other fillings, and toss the bread to avoid carbs

venusaur@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 79d (2 replies)

That’s right. I just tell them to put the hot dog in the palm of my hand and pour topping on me so I don’t waste the bread.

Darkenfolk@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 79d (1 reply)

I just ram a stick through the middle of the hotdog(horizontal ofc) and use the puntured hotdog as a straw for the sauce.

venusaur@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 78d

That’s beautiful really

You're gonna need one of these

I also like to peel an orange and eat it like an apple. Taking a big juicy bite out of three segments at once makes me feel alive.

venusaur@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 79d

You’re an abomination.

RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 78d (2 replies)

Sometimes I eat multiple clementine wedges at once.

PapaStevesy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 78d (1 reply)

Bro, like half the clementine at once, so juicy

RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 77d

Whoa now, let's not get crazy.

FosterMolasses@leminal.space · 4 pts · 79d

If not bite, why bite-shaped?

BackgrndNoize@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 78d (1 reply)

I feel like with people like these the act of consumption is what they enjoy rather than what they are eating, it's more about how much they can eat in one go

venusaur@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 78d

Like the Mitch Hedberg joke about rice

BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 78d (1 reply)

You’re supposed to bite into them lengthwise, like bananas or burritos.

If it didn't melt and go all sticky at the contact points I would pick up chocolate bars and nibble on them.

venusaur@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 73d

Haha just get the fun size bars

Etterra@discuss.online · 24 pts · 79d (12 replies)

Sometimes I bite a Kit Kat like this just to be contrary.

FosterMolasses@leminal.space · 12 pts · 79d (2 replies)

Found the serial killer.

ExcessShiv@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 15 pts · 79d (1 reply)

Yeah WTF, only a psychopath would willingly support Nestlé

Etterra@discuss.online · 1 pts · 78d

I didn't said I buy Kit Kat.

raspberriesareyummy@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 79d (4 replies)

Fuck Nestle. Eat Dido from your local Turkish market if you are lucky enough to have one.

elephantium@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 78d (3 replies)

Wait. Kitkat is Nestle?!

Nooooo!

RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 78d (1 reply)

Is this quality chocolate, or like KitKat?

raspberriesareyummy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 78d

Taste is almost identical, so I would assume "like KitKat" - however I have never spent a second thinking about chocolate quality in chocolate-biscuit-bars.

MyVeryRealName@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 79d (1 reply)

You're insane

StillAlive@piefed.world · 18 pts · 79d

For eating kitkat.

Fuck nestle.

Nima@leminal.space · 2 pts · 79d (1 reply)

heyyy buddy lemme just put this reaaaally comfy white jacket on you! it'll keep you safe like its giving you a hug! 😅

robocall@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 78d

Everyone likes hugs. Except those that don't.

FosterMolasses@leminal.space · 9 pts · 79d (6 replies)

These are like death bars to me. I can eat a whole jar of nutella, but for some reason whole unprocessed hazelnuts make my throat swell up, go figure.

(I guess I shouldn't complain since nature gifted me pollen allergies on easy mode. I'll never accidentally eat a handful of whole hazelnuts the way someone might accidentally touch a dust fragment particle of shellfish lol)

RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 78d

Probably because there is so little actual hazelnut in nutella anymore, and the hazelnut that is in nutella has been processed with the skins removed. I think Nutella is ~12% hazelnut, so not a lot.

Probably why you are less reactive to one of the two.

Joelk111@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 78d (4 replies)

As someone with pretty severe environmental allergies to dust, pollen, you name it, I'd take that over any food allergy any day.

Now, if allergy shots didn't exist, my story would be very different. I've been getting them for nearly 20 years and they're the only reason I don't have to worry about going outside when I want to.

robocall@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 78d (2 replies)

Interesting. I thought living with tissues in my pocket every moment of the day couldn't be eliminated. I wonder if shots could help me.

Joelk111@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 78d (1 reply)

Allergy shots are amazing, I can't reccommend them enough.

robocall@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 78d

Huh, I guess I have to send my doctor a message. Thanks.

RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 78d

So I don't have any allergies to speak of, and I can eat pretty much anything with no heartburn or ill effects--over 40 now, so not a kid, and I do like spicy food. I wonder if I should call a medical research group or something.

ICastFist@programming.dev · 7 pts · 79d (1 reply)

Reminds me of a Veritasium video I saw last week about molecular polymorphism. They spent a good 6 minutes talking about the different forms of crystallization of chocolate and how to solidify it back into form V - the shiny one we usually see after unwrapping it.

PapaStevesy@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 78d

Ugh, tempering chocolate sucks, at least if you're bad at it lol

The ones from Aldi right?

JigglySackles@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 74d

Lol was going to say I bet that those Choceur bars were the inspiration.
