Remember though that its not really white chocolate?! Real white chocolate is different from the "white cream" hershey and reeses and most of the white chocolate we buy at the store. (real white choc is made with cocoa butter and tastes a lot different) I remember someone posted about that and blew my mind lol.0 -
I love Lindt white chocolate truffles! There was a bakery by my house that sold chunks of chocolate for baking and I'd spend my money on chunks of white chocolate over regular drugstore candy.
Chocolate peppermint is the best! It took everything in me not to go bonkers at Trader Joe's last Christmas with all the peppermint chocolate. I've been getting ads for Dairy Queen mint blizzards and it's around the corner from me, very tempting!1 -

I mean, I agree too... But I just mean the combo of white chocolate and cookies and cream ahha0 -

Okay... here is my stance on this:
Chocolate and PEPPERMINT = meh
Chocolate and creme de menthe? = FAVE2 -
Chocolate ice cream in the worst flavour. Though I love chocolate everything else.
Even the mere thought of shepherds pie makes me lose my appetite1 -

I get you on the chocolate ice cream...so not a favorite of mine, but do love me some good chocolate that's for sure...and shepherd's pie???...even when i ate meat, I found ground beef to be the most vile thing out there and then adding mushy peas and mashed potatoes to the mix?😫1 -
I agree with whoever said coconut water is disgusting. Yuck. It has the texture of spit and is just nasty! The only exception is flavored sparkling coconut water, but even then I'd rather just have regular sparkling water.0

Not an olive high, obviously.
I've seen cats get on olive highs.
I think it's the salt, not sure why though. My cats used to steal fast food french fries and they wouldn't actually eat them, they'd just lick all the salt off

One of my cat gets crazy over olive brine. When I open a can of olives (and he will recognize the sound even from far away in the backyard), I have to give him a teaspoon of the stuff to keep him calm and refrain of whacking the olives right out of my hand. The other two cannot be bothered.
My sister's cat (RIP) would act the same way over olives as he would for catnip, rolling on the floor, rubbing his face on it, the whole nine yards.1 -

Chocolate ice cream is the standard by which all other ice creams measure their worth.
All fall despairingly short with the exception of Cookies & Cream.3 -

Noooo! Peppermint bark is the True Meaning of Christmas!
The 4th wise man presented peppermint bark to the Baby Jesus! (little-known fact)5 -

Shepherd's pie should include ground lamb, not ground beef.
IMO, peas are optional.
Here's one that looks like what I've made before: https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/shepherds-pie
It's not the prettiest dish, but it's ground lamb, veg, and mashed potatoes (and some other tasty ingredients in the recipe linked), so I'm a fan.1 -
In contrast to shepherd's pie, peppermint bark is horrible. Joseph was right!2

Goat cheese is absolutely repulsive. It ruins everything it touches, it's impossible to pick out. I hate that it's such a fad thing now and it's in EVERYTHING when you dine out.4

Disagreement here: I disliked cheese in general until one evening in Paris (France has done a LOT to influence my taste buds...). It was late, I'd finished a lovely day at Chinon, roaming the castle ruins and befriending a kitten who followed me around there, and I wasn't really hungry but wanted to complete the day and go back to the hotel. So I ordered a salad which came with fried goat cheese. I figured I could eat around the cheese. But it looked kind of appetizing when it came to my table, and I figured, okay, I'll take a nibble. And I kept on eating all the bits in the salad, and changed my mind about cheese.
I'm hoping a similar thing will happen some day with mushrooms and sea food.3 -
I love goat cheese. And most every soft cheese. Mmm, cheese.
Swiss cheese, however, is gross. One of the only cheeses I pass on.0 -

Cottage pie is made with hamburger. Shepherd's pie is made with ground lamb.
I like my low rent Hershey's chocolate. White chocolate should not even be called chocolate. It is an abomination.
Vanilla ice cream is my favorite.2 -
Did someone say chocolate ice cream? 😋
PS- I’ll trade you guys— I’ll take the chocolate and olives- you can have the goat cheese and Shepard’s pie. 👍🏻👍🏻
Goat cheese is a lil funk. Just sayin.

Totally agree! I thought I'd love coconut water since I love every other coconut thing. Wrong!0 -
Blue cheese tastes like pneumonia..3

Smoothies and smoothie bowls are not satisfying in the slightest8

I love pretzels and I love peanut butter (natural pb), but I find the pretzel/PB combo highly overrated...2
