No, just the chips.

The nice thing about facts is that they remain facts even if you disagree with them. And the chips from my local fish and chip shop are the bestest in the whole world... that is  a scientific fact.

And cats agree.

And not the Cadbury Chocolate?  I'm surprised.

I like Hershey's giant bars with almonds.  I guess that makes me a commoner.  No cat points for that eh?

Being a Pennsylvania native (home of Hershey's), I grew up on Hershey bars.  I still love them.  However, I really enjoy Cadbury bars and other chocolates.  However, I am allergic to NUTS, not peanuts, but tree nuts.  So, I really would love to try other chocolates but the ingredient label often says that it's made on equipment that also manufactures product with nuts.  I feel so deprived of trying some of the best chocolates in the world.

I was born lucky Stan.  I'm not allergic to anything.  But I tell my wife I'm allergic to liver.

I have no wife, but I too am highly allergic to liver...

I love beef tongue though, but it's rather too expensive to have often.

My favorite chocolates are Ferrero Rocher.

My favorite cheese is La Vache Qui Rit.

Nobody has mentioned another good chocolate.  Ghirardelli.   I finished out my junior year at Galileo High School.  It was just across the street from the Ghirardelli plant.  You could smell them making chocolate.

The factory is now a tourist trap just a few blocks from Fisherman's Wharf.  Full of coffee shops, boutiques, gift shops and restaurants.  I don't know where they make it now.
