This is just for fun. It generated a suprisingly lively conversation at work, so I'll ask you:

If a genie appeared to you and said you could have all the wishes you wanted, but in return you had to give up one of these forEVER!

Chocolate

Cheese

Wine

Which one would you give up?

    Chocolate. I couldn't live without cheese! And we use wine in cooking all the time (plus I love to have a glass with dinner).

    I think I could give up chocolate, too! I need my wine, and cheese is much healthier than chocolate!:smile:
  • What a terrible senario! :sad: I think I would have to forgo chocolate as well. Hard as that would be, I refuse to give up wine and cheese! At least there are enough othe sweet options, there is NO substitute for a good glass of wine or cheese.

    Cheese. I can take it or leave it. But chocolate or wine? NO WAY!! Besides, I tell myself due to their antioxidant content (I eat dark chocolate and red wine) that they are good for me. Is that a good reason? :laugh:

    Wine...can't stand the stuff. :noway: I could never give up chocolate or cheese...:tongue:
  • I agree with the wine. When I drink (which is not very often) I tend to go for the harder stuff. And if I gave up cheese or chocolate what would I order at The Melting Pot?! :drinker:

    Thanks to the weird quirk in my makeup that doesn't play nice with alcohol to begin with (doesn't matter if it's wine, beer or whatever, it hits my stomach and makes a U-turn :drinker: =:sick: ), giving up wine would be a no-brainer :wink:

    Oh that's difficult....I'd have to give a sad farewell to cheese.

    Chocolate is a necessity. I don't think I'd exist without it. Cheese and Wine are on the same level, but I family functions wouldn't be bearable without the wine, therefore I'd have to drop the cheese.

    This is a super easy one!

    CHOCOLATE!!! My mom always says she doesn't know how i'm her daughter and don't care for chocolate! And growing up in WI i could never give up my cheese, and visiting Germany really hooked me on the wine!!!

    dont drink wine. i have tried to be sophisticated and order Chianti with an Italian meal....ended up giving it to my friend. YUCK!! ( or maybe it was the bottle of MD20/20 my friend and I shared at 15 behind the skating rink...I have never had a headache like that again in my life. My mom laughed like crazy and said I was punished enough, she didnt need to do a thing but clang the dishes all day!!)

    can take or leave chocolate, although now I really want some, thanks a lot

    now CHEESE is my favorite food of all time. it goes on pizza, chicken, all kinds of crackers. it is salty or sweet, hard or soft. cheese makes the world go round, or at least my world
    :heart:
  • WINE. That would be easy considering I LOVE cheese and chocolate!

    I don't drink anything with alcohol in it (oh yes, I'm that boring :tongue: ) so I could easily live without wine. Heck, I DO live without wine :laugh: But chocolate is like a drug to me.. I just ate a chocolate flavored muesli bar as a part of my lunch :embarassed: Cheese on the other hand is something I eat only on rare occasions. I do love it in a way but it's not a necessity in my diet.. :smile:
  • ByeBye Wine.

    I am not a big drinker anyways. When I do drink if it doesn't taste like candy its not worth it so I just don't :P

    If it was between just chocolate or cheese that would be a far more difficult decision.

    Have any of my wishes come true? Wow! Then one of them is to never feel the urge for chocolate. I'd look at it just as :indifferent: as I look at a wood stick.
    Heh, any of my wishes come true! :noway: Woohoo!, I'd drink to that my last glass of wine :drinker: .
  • Not an easy decision for me. I guess it would have to be chocolate, boo-hoo!! :cry:

    Chocolate I love wine and cheese.

    Nothing like a girls night with a good bottle of wine and cheese.

    I love me some white wine :indifferent: but I guess cheese and chocolate are much more important to me :love:

    Cheese--I hardly eat it (except mozzarella on pizza and provolone on roast beef sandwiches) but the notion of never having wine or chocolate? Horror novel material!!!
