Oh my gosh, I laughed out loud at that. Brilliant.

My favorites are Green and Black's and Guittard (they mostly just do chips as far as I know). Their white chocolates are the best too.

I like the orange one in this group as well.

The chili is great since you can only eat one or two squares because of the strong flavour. My issue is chocolate like cadbury, where you can only eat one or two squares because of how sweet it is.

good lord this person needs to write. I'm actually interested in the article but the syntax is making my head spin.
>Mr. Craig voiced skepticism about their skill and their beards, and offered a theory: that early in their career — before their three shops, celebrated chocolate wrapper designer and favor found with the French Laundry chef Thomas Keller — when making chocolate early on and in their own apartment, it could not possibly have been from scratch.

They did acquire Scharffen Berger, which in my opinion is the best bean to bar chocolate produced in the United States. Unfortunately, I choose not to eat it anymore because Hershey's sources their chocolate from areas that use child slaves to produce it. This is why it's cheap.
