Ramen and Chocolate and Chips Oh My!!!



Months and months ago I tried to feed my husband Ramen noodle. I figured who hasn't tried ramen noodle or cup a soup. Ramnen really isn't unlikeable it is after all just noodles and broth albeit they are endlessly long, slurpy,and extremely difficult to get in your mouth, they are still tasty. It turns out that my husband is not a big fan of Ramen noodles he actually has a long list of things he is not a big fan of. Jeff my husband sat at the table looked at the noodles and said "Sunday Soup" I had never heard Ramen called that so I stared at him quizzicaly and said "What?". He then proceeded to tell me that as a child they used to eat Ramen on sundays and then they used to eat it on mondays and tuesdays and wednesdays and on and on, you get the point. My husband had a Ramen Noodle overload as a child and now it has lost it's yum for him. Jeff on the other hand has quite a devotion to dark chocolate. I search out various dark chocolate bars to feed his love of the bitter-sweet confection. I found pear and almond dark chocolate, raspberry dark chocolate, apricot dark chocolate, caramel (another of his favorites) and dark chocolate I even found chile and dark chocolate, but he would surely give me a scrunched face if I presented that to him. I did receive a disgusted reaction when I revealed to him a Ramen Noodle dark chocolate bar. This Ramen bar is made by Komforte Chockolates and it is composed of 53% dark chocolate and crunchy Ramen noodles mixed in. They also produce a French Toast milk chocolate bar and define it as (crunchy savory french toast mixed into rich milk chocolate) and a Tortilla Lime and Salt milk chocolate bar (crispy corn tortilla, lime and salt mixed into rich milk chocolate). I think a few Komforte Chockolates will be on my christmas gift list just because they are unique. But for my husband he will enjoy a plain dark chocolate Hersheys bar with no ramen, corn chips , salt , chile or toast in it........ Yes my Jeff will have the bland stocking while all other family members will be crunching through Ramen.
