Little Things that Irk You 4Ever

Apparently Cadbury's Cream Eggs will no longer use Dairy Milk chocolate but will instead use cheaper, lesser quality chocolate in a bid to save costs.

Spread the word, boycott them!

I've eaten 10 in the last two days. >_>

Dairy milk is utterly rank anyway so what difference does it make? Even with a cheaper chocolate it will taste the same (as in sugar flavoured lard)

the Playstation tv advert i was just sent riled me particularly the bit ive cropped below



so I made it a bit more realistic to how 90% of the users would probably use it.

Yeah, totally agree ETC. Everyone thinks Dairy Milk is some bastion of chocolate holiness. And yet there is virtually no chocolate in it. It's unidentified vegetable fat, mixed with milk, a small amount of cocoa butter (this is not chocolate) and small amount of cocoa solids (this is chocolate) so that they can claim it is chocolate.

Don't even get me started on Hershey's - revered USA brand of similarly non-chocolate chocolate products. The plain Hershey's is revolting beyond belief... And looking at the ingredients, they have actually added something called "flavourings" to make it taste like that. And yet zillions of retarded fat americans shove it down their gobs like it's caviar. And a whole load of clever, thin ones too. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?

Meanwhile, marmite.

I just found out the reason Hersheys, and now Cream Eggs, taste so bad is that the recipe includes butyric acid in it to help stability. Which tastes like vomit.

To me Hershey's tastes of actual vomit.

Green + Blacks or Willies Cacao is the only choice as far as I'm concerned, even posh chocage like Valrhona or Hotel Chocolat use glucose-fructose syrup now (UK version of HFCS) which is disgusting and most others use soy or sunflower lethecin as a preserve which is not a particularly good ingredient

You might like Montezuma's dark chocolate: Ingredients: Organic cocoa solids (73%), Organic sugar (26%) & Organic Vanilla.
Their milk and white do contain soy lecithin, but they taste soooo much better than the Hotel Chocolat stuff next door (the latter appears to be cheap chocolate in expensive looking wrappers).

thing that irks me is the realization on the amount of usernames and passwords i have ..steam...psn.....xbox live....youtube...etc etc and how much money is tied down to accessing those places

[charlesr]

Just post them all here to make it easier to refer back to.

Lol

Still from a convenience point of view the chrome sync feature was really handy when i had to reformat and reinstall everything

No mate, 2 boxes is that price. You get about 15-18 in a box

Poxy deliveries. Since 4am this morning according to their tracking page, I have had a UPS package out for delivery. When it didn't arrive earlier, I had to shuffle a whole bunch of stuff to make sure I wouldn't miss it. Ended up checking every car noise, paranoid I would've hear them. Still hasn't arrived. Site still says out for delivery. Customer service knows nothing and can't guarantee a thing for tomorrow and I'm leaving for the airport at 10am and after that it will be next week. Rubbish. This is nothing like King of Queens makes out. Kevin James takes pride in his work in that.
