Has Not Actually Done Cocaine

Brawnfire posted:

This is actually something I never got about the Wonka television thing: it would require tons more of each ingredient, in a ratio to its desired final resolution, and the resulting effort is for a free sample, simply banking on the idea that tasting a Wonka bar will make you buy more chocolate. Not profitable imho

The idea is that somehow it's able to transmit that one giant chocolate bar to not just one television(at least once they perfect the process), rather to ALL televisions receiving the signal, so sure that giant bar probably uses the amount of ingredients that 1000 bars uses, but you could hypothetically send that bar to millions of potential customers all at once

Fake Edit: been beaten to it, but screw it

I would at least try mint Cheetos. Let's not fool ourselves, any attempt at a "cold" flavor is just mint. Now of course I'm wondering how hard it would be to aerate my own homogeneous corn foam.

Citrus and mint are fine, like a mojito. The thing in toothpaste that makes things taste awful is a foaming agent, SLS. You can buy toothpaste without it too.

You can't have them both be super-intense or the flavors clash too much, but adding reasonable amounts of mint to the usual orange taste of a chocolate orange shouldn't pose any problems at all. (Plus, the strength of orange and mint together would probably do a decently good job of masking the usual butyric acid taste of cheaper chocolates.)

I've tried knock-off orange After Eights, and they were good. You have to remember that the reason why orange juice tastes off after brushing your teeth is not because of the minty flavour of your toothpaste, but because of sodium lauryl sulfate, which is a type of soap it contains.

Go to be fair to World's Finest, they look like a freshly waxed chocolate sports car. Of course that's because they are waxed because you could tell by the sort of dull lifeless matte finish of their chocolate type product that it is inedible.

He ended up in the hospital once. Botulism I think? Ended up costing him $20k in medical bills and ever since he's been very cautious about things that contain dairy.

Would but would likely leave the peanut butter alone.

Unless there was hot sauce nearby then I would mix the two together and have that as dessert.

I don't know if I've just pickier with age, but most "essences" taste terrible and chemical to me. I mean, I don't like most flavored seltzers because they use "essences," and prefer Spindrift, San Pellegrino, or making my own flavored seltzer using juice.

This spills over into chocolate, where things like chocolate oranges just don't taste very good to me anymore.

I'm still okay with lavender, rose, and some other other floral flavors, but I'm not sure if they are the same kind of "essence" as what's in most seltzers and chocolate things.
