I was in a darkened theater and had bought the Cadbury bar (OK to call it that?) - never had one before - and my god, when my teeth sank into it and it began melting in my mouth I was over the moon. Hope all goes well, but I'm afraid I do like Hersheys.

I never thought about that.... but it's interesting to think that you could have a chocolate shrine (and sad, if cadbury really IS your favourite :-) You wouldn't be able to eat it cos if you did, it'd be like eating antiques).
