Lotte Aeration Chocolate
While I was waiting for my train in the subway, I noticed a vending machine with these large boxes in them. Upon further inspection, these boxes were "Lotte Aeration Chocolate." I know what Lotte is (see previous post), and I know what chocolate is, but what is aeration chocolate?
Also: why did they sell it in a box?
Review:
Upon opening the attractive box, I discovered that the box is full of individually wrapped pieces of chocolate. It turns out that the "aeration" description is because the middle of these pieces of chocolate has little holes in it. It looks like a small sponge.
The taste is pretty b-grade chocolate. I didn't even notice a difference in texture. Also, each piece has over 245k cal. I'm not sure what that means, but if it means that I'm absorbing 245 calories per piece, it is too unhealthy for me. I chomped down five pieces before I noticed.
The cost was only 1000 won (about a dollar), so I can't complain about that.
Overall, I'd give it:
2/5 points

Sometimes I forget the pleasure I take in the novelty of trying new things. Maybe I should have opted for veal last night.
WONDER BREAD; WONDER CHOCOLATE
I wonder if it has a high wax content in order to whip the air bubbles into it. Weird stuff. My friend Viktor's favorite chocolate bar in Russia has the same kind of "aerated" texture. It's the kind I tried to substitute for chocolate chips. Won't melt.
Heh, bring me back a chocolate wrapper or two to add to my international collection.
Today's word verification is "cizyae," an antiquated Bronx dialect term for "you say."
