Rambler 1-1 Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 We have Mars bars in Canada, now peanut free LOL they're really going on a "No nuts" crusade up here. In a few years, mustard gas will have nothing on almonds, and peanuts will be outlawed by the Geneva Council. And now you can't get decent chocolate in Hawaii? what's the world coming to?!? I think they just don't send chocolate to HI because it'll melt in the heat, and they won't bother to refridgerate it. Quote
+SayethWhaaaa Posted December 1, 2007 Author Posted December 1, 2007 82 Med Cruise on the Ike, waited until we were 12 miles out to get my cigs (quit in 87) and then hit the store and behold, my first experience with a Toblerone bar :yes: ! Nobody is putting peanut butter in my chocolate. Hehe, toblerone... the only food you can bite into that will simultaneously stab your brain through your nose! Quote
+Spectre_USA Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 I think a Fluffernutter is a New England thing. My wife has to ship out a case of Fluff every year to her brother who moved to Colorado and can't find it out there. I honestly had a fluffernutter two days ago. All nice and warm and gooey, it can't be beat on a cold winter day. Ah, man. Now you got me craving one of them things! Grew up in Hampton, NH, and scrarfed them puppies up. Probably too sweet for a discerning pallette, read old, now, but ah the memories. I might have to check the local shops, this may grow into an itch I can't scratch, and once done, not as yummy as I remember. Quote

I'm still eating them at 36. I've also seen a hybrid in which Nutella is substituted for the peanut butter (now that's a bit too sweet, almost like desert), adn I've even seen fluffernutter dipped in batter and deep-fried. That's overboard in my opinion. But the basic fluffernutter in unbeatable. Let me know if you can't find a source, I'm sure I could arrange to get you some. Quote

tank03 Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 (edited) Can ya pick this fluffernutter stuff up in Boston? I'll have to check it out next week. Fluffernutter: it's a sandwich made with toast, peanut butter, and "Fluff". "Fluff" is a spreadable marshmallow-like vanilla confection that's sold in a jar (also comes in strawberry flavor). As far as I know it's only found in New England; the factory is in Massachusetts. Toast two pieces of white bread, put peanut butter on one, Fluff on the other, put them together and you have a Flufffernutter! If done right it will be awfully gooey, but nothing beats it on a cold day. A real fuffernutter is made on still warm toast, not just bread. If you are going to be in Boston, you have to check out Quincy Market. It's a collection of dozens of different shops/ restaurants located in three old market buildings right in Boston. The center market is nothing but take-away food shops of everykind; I'm sure one of them could sell you a fluffernutter. At the very least, you can go to a food store and buy a jar of Fluff to take with you. Well worth it. It's also popular to spoon a dollop of Fluff into a Hot Chocolate drink (I also recommend a good shot of whisky in the hot chocolate). Head to the North End for fantastic Italian food (Mike's on Hanover St. has the best pastries, try the Bear Claws or Lobster Claws). The Back Bay area also has some unique and eccentric restaurants.

sparkomatic Posted December 10, 2007 Posted December 10, 2007 i like Japanese chocolate, it is not as milk-saturated or sweet as American chocolate and tastes a little bitter, like it should Quote
