I love savoring great chocolate! I thought that the mention of the different textures and sounds of dark, milk, and white chocolate was interesting — something I’d noticed in the past but never really thought much about.

[...] our food packaging by now, but Gena over at Big City, Little Kitchen (I can relate to that title) wins with this one: A few days ago I was able to take a close look at some of Vosges’s exotic chocolate offerings. [...]

Life is too short to eat bad chocolate…So, if you have to rub and sniff in order to not be dissappointed.. so be it.

I love Vosges chocolate! The instructions are entertaining in my book…we often read them out loud for a good laugh!

I’m not sure if it’s silly or not, as most of my experience with chocolate has been with the under-3-dollars variety, but this did remind me a little bit of an interview that I heard on NPR awhile back: http://marketplace.publicradio.org/segments/working/chloe.html

This French lady is a professional chocolate taster. I could seriously listen to her talk about her job ALL DAY LONG. It makes me consider moving into a more scrumptious career.

How funny a friend and I were going through a gift basket of chocolate and we saw the directions as we were plowing through the chocolate bars. We paused. Read them and kept on eating.

I loved the curry flavor and was mildly impressed by the tea flavor.

i think the directions are fun for people who are just beginning to realize the complexity in flavors of chocolate.

and it makes it more fun if you just want to nosh through it! (breaking rules makes everything a little more enjoyable!)

while i agree that you can snarf the whole bar down if you wanna, i also agree with those directions – especially with those vosges bars (my favorite is the naga).

if only they weren’t $7 a pop. sigh.

I agree!!! Fine chocolate is like fine wine, just plain worth it! Vosges Chocolate has paired the best chocolate with some of the most uncommon flavors I have ever seen. The greatest selection I have found is at chathams fine chocolates

I vote for silly! If it’s a complex chocolate, you may be more inclined to savor it in little bites and take the time to think about it, but who needs instructions for that?

And if you just want to NOM-NOM-NOM through the whole bar at once, you shouldn’t have to feel guilty about it.
