food paper revision!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When you think of chocolate you think of a brown bar of surgery goodness that’s a treat for any occasion. But did you ever really think about the different kinds there are? And are they really that different? Hershey, Godiva, dove, lindor truffles; different brands but are they different chocolate? Throughout the years there have been many different companies and brands of chocolate products to choose from, and for all these years very few have ever wondered if there was a difference between the chocolate that is made by these corporations. Well I have made the conclusion that… well… I have no freaking idea… but from the information I have gathered I will help you make your own damn conclusion. When you think of a chocolate bar what are some companies that come to mind? Hershey, Lindor, Godiva, Dove, ect right? Well have you ever put those companies’ products side by side and realized just how different they are? And im not just talking about the wrapping or the size, obviously that’s different, (if you didn’t realize this, your either color blind or oblivious to your surroundings… retard…) no im talking about the texture, the smell, the color, the sweetness and the essence if the chocolate bar. Have you ever really tasted a chocolate bar? Like really?! Have you ever had it rest on your tong and let it just melt into your mouth and seep into every taste bud on the surface of that muscle that helps you cherish your food? I doubt you have, not many people do. But when you acquire the ability to do this you can really understand the distinct differences in the different brands of chocolate. You can gather the sweetness and the texture of the bar and understand the voluptuousness of the chocolate. With Hershey’s chocolate there is a very smooth texture to the touch and a sensual smell that lifts from the wrapper as you first open it. And then as you rest it on your tong and it seeps into your taste buds you taste the sweet flavor of the coco and the warmth of the mixture. With dove it’s a similar texture and smell, but when placed on the tong it doesn’t melt as fast as the Hershey’s. But the sweetness is almost overpowering with the dove chocolate. The lindor chocolate has a similar texture and sweetness as the Hershey’s but the smell from the wrapper is very pungent and graceful smelling. Although the differences in these brands was very distinct, when comparing the Godiva I had trouble. It seemed to capture all of the other brands good attributes; this may be why it was the most expensive of the brands.

  1. Hey Alex,

    I see your draft here but no reflection.

    Get to my blog site and check out the list of things you should have up here by now. If you want to keep that A or at least a B in class, you are going to have to get it all up here and to revisit those reflections on each piece.
