Episode #98 – The Chocolate Break Covid Omicron Edition

Episode #98 - The Chocolate Break Covid Omicron Edition

Well hello there. A couple of weeks we came down with the covid. The flavor was omicron, basically a Greek letter O or 0. I hoped it would be a more interesting looking character but it’s not. It got every single one of us in the house, us and our two kids. It wasn’t fun. In fact in the next episode that comes out, the prolonged effect of that little bugger will be known. Either way, we review some Amazon Fresh delivered chocolate which overall we really didn’t like at all. Remember kids, don’t lick the windows on your school bus.

Episode #94: Carlos Rolo & The Zero

Oh man it’s Easter Sunday and I need to use the bathroom. On the other hand – wait, nothing on my hand to begin with, but today is a special day, but this episode will come out on Thursday and it was recorded the prior week and we’re all out of Easter chocolate, so this has nothing to do with Easter. Enjoy.

Episode #94: Carlos Rolo & The Zero

Rolo – United States

IDK but these are enrobed in chocolate. That’s my take on it. Covered? Dipped? No. Enrobed.

Zero – United States

It’s a large white bowel movement with a lot of nougat and gravel.

Carlos V – Mexico

I often converse with Stumpy from North Little Rock on my daily early morning walks via Bluetooth headset. Conversation often goes to his mahjong game which has a character named Carlos Rivera who asks quite often to receive containers and food items. We agreed however that his product tasted really bad.

Episode #91: Like The Legend Of The Creamy Bolus

After many months of meditating, it has come to our attention we completely forgot about all of you. Yes, we shirked our responsibility to the throngs of followers we have and decided to give a big ‘screw you’ to each and every one of you. But now, we’ve relented, and without apology, we resume our tasting and commenting on the various varieties of chocolate confections that you enjoy. These are trivial treats that make you feel as though life is worth living as you trudge through your days like a long walk to the bathroom in the middle of the night, drowsy and confused. With that, once again we bring you what you want.

Episode #91: Like The Legend Of The Creamy Bolus

Twix Cookies & Creme – United States

This one was a little confusing as it has an alright flavor, but it kind of left us feeling a little dirty. The creme also confused Hans as to whether it was caramel infused or not, however Kit was quick to point out the lack of caramel and corrected him accordingly.

Hans – 3 / 5 stars

Kit 3 / 5 stars

Kit Kat Duos Mocha+Chocolate – United States

We were both insensed and a bit disgusted with this one. The words we described these with were burnt and drudgery – Kit found the flavor a little burnt, and Hans found it not very enjoyable and kind of a chore in the chew department.

Kit – 1 out of 5 stars

Episode #78: Unicorns & Darkness

Pretend chocolate that isn’t really chocolate and something that just doesn’t work. What’s sad is that the not chocolate gets our nod of approval and the actual chocolate doesn’t. These are troubling times, but you can rest assured we will protect you, nurture you, and coddle your little snowflake souls when selecting a confection is just too difficult of a task for you. You’re welcome.

Episode #77: m&m’s Macadamia Meh

This episode is brought to you by the fact that attempting to improve on something that’s just fine already isn’t all that great a thing, where we are concerned. I mean, sometimes it works, but then they did the newer Star Wars movies and robbed us all of hours of our lives. At least there’s The Mandalorian now, but it seems almost criminal that Disney has anything to do with a sci-fi (oh wait – Star Wars isn’t science fiction, it’s a fantasy saga in a dead culture). Star Trek is infinity better than Star Wars.

Episode 76 – Hola, Hazzlegnuts

Fudgie wudgy. Reminds me of a friend who mentioned things not to say in court – Judgie-wudgy or ju-rrrr-dge would be two things not to refer to the officiator in a court case with. Man… It’s 2020. It all goes downhill from here. No! Friends and countrypeoples! Everything is awesome! All will become truly great! I hope. Let’s find out.

Hola, Hazzlegnuts

Episode 68: The Mysterious Saga pt 1

So it really is a mysterious saga – at least for this episode. Well, I dunno I figured mysterious and saga are good words to lure you into hearing a rather interesting story that will drag out over the next four episodes. So you can have anticipation and will come back. Will you come back? You know, if you don’t you will have a sense of incompleteness in your life. You really should come back next week. Come back next week.

Episode 65: Brazil Yay! California Bleah…

Well, the title is apt insofar as Hans is concerned, but for Kit both ends of the stick point to bleah.

Episode 65: Brazil Yay! California Bleah…

Talento amendoas e passas – Brazil

While Hans found this one to the the ultimate, Kit wasn’t completely sold on it, but thought it was pretty good.

Kit – 3.5 out of 5.0

Hans 5.0 out of 5.0

Get some here

Ticket Chocolates Grasshopper Pie – California, United States

Kit was a little worried about the inclusion of grasshoppers at the outset, but assured of their lack of inclusion set her at ease. Unfortunately, we found spearmint instead of peppermint here which disappointed.

Kit 0 out of 5.0 stars

Episode 62: A Tangled Honeycomb Of Roses & Dolomite

This one. This one was rough. So there’s a microphone above us. It’s a Rode microphone. And it’s screwed up. It sucks. What can I do? At least there was the audio from the front camera. But right after the first review you’ll hear some scratchy sounds. That’s the above microphone. So yeah.
