It has certainly aged me. Well, enough discussing heavier topics, let’s delve right into the tasting, and rating, and indulging, and…..

    Affordable but still Savory

    This blog page is dedicated to inexpensive chocolates that are continuously, to this day, enjoyed daily by many chocolate lovers out there. I still happily delve my taste buds into a good old-fashioned, so tasty, and yet simple Mr. Goodbar. To top it off, the cost allows for a much "Sweeter" satisfaction on your fuller wallet!
