==================
 -> If you're talking cacao butter, there's pretty much no such
 -> thing as too much fat. If they have started sneaking other
 -> kinds of shortening (as Cadbury tried), that's a distinct no-no.
 RH> For you maybe, but I'm not fond of greasy chocolate.  

What's your definition of greasy? For me, a mouth-coating
mouthfeel is a hallmark, but chocolate fat doesn't produce
that, unless your mouth is considerably hotter than mine.
In fact, the higher fat content, the harder the melt tends
to be.

I've never had a true chocolate that exhibits greasiness -
it's other ingredients that cause that, ones that are not
allowed for in the purist and at least until recently
legal definition. The giants, especially Hershey and Cadbury,
have long lobbied to have other fats, including greasy ones,
included in the definition, but last I heard they have been
thwarted by the forces of virtue.

 -> Well, Haagen Dazs is not the richest nor the tastiest
 -> ice cream out there, but it's still better than yogurt.
 RH> That depends on when it's eaten. 

Well, it's certainly not the richest nor the tastiest out
there, and under normal circumstances a potato (not the
most wonderful of foods) is better than yogurt.

 RH> Noosa can get pretty greasy tasting, but it isn't widely available. 
 RH> La  Liberte is a chief offender.  The coconut is pretty good, but the
 RH> fat  content is a dilly.  You might well like it.  I think Brown Cow
 RH> makes a  creamtop yogurt that might be more to your liking as well.

I will bear those names in mind and jump at the chance
to try them next time someone is in the mood to buy some
for me.
