The coco fruits are just like small CoConuts and the flesh inside it was very much bitter in taste. Our local guide burnt the flesh in a slow fire and put some sugar in it. Next day it was a caramel like thing little bitter but the the drink made out of it was very much energitic. Locally people call these trees as chocolate trees.pradipwritenowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06321320863952722189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5671536805876663540.post-33761029238135866192009-03-12T23:25:00.000+05:302009-03-12T23:25:00.000+05:30Although I'm usually on a diet, and not fond of sw...Although I'm usually on a diet, and not fond of sweets, my weakness is chocolate, especially dark chocolate.

Of course, we have some really good bakers and confectioners around here...<BR/><BR/>My chocolate memory is oddly enough not of eating chocolate. What I remember is a Christmas when my grandfather gave my sister and I each a toy See's Candy truck. (See's Candy was and is preeminently chocolate, for anyone who doesn't know) I'm sure it had some great chocolates that came along with the package, but what I remember is that the truck was so 'See's'. It's strange how the little white truck with its crisp black 'See's Candy' lettering remains so vivid to me...Wonder whatever happened to those little trucks?seana grahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03774794086733027289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5671536805876663540.post-82494944017137462502009-03-11T21:55:00.000+05:302009-03-11T21:55:00.000+05:30I've wondered if losing my taste for eating until ...I've wondered if losing my taste for eating until my gut hurts is a sad thing :) To be able to eat chocolate like that and enjoy every bit---now I can't do it.

It was all about Cadbury's. <BR/><BR/>We shifted to Mumbai when both my younger brother and I were around ages 8 and 10 and lived in South Mumbai. Evevrytime we passed Haji Ali where there was a huge house of the Cadbury people, we'd imagine how wonderful it would be to live and work there. Kind of walk around picking up chocolates at will, in between meetings. and the main thing would be that there would be no one who could stop you !.....Ugich Konitarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15901335427613806798noreply@blogger.com
