Athos, Porthos, and Aramis Can Suck It

Yesterday, I ate my annual Three Musketeers bar and then wondered on Facebook how many years it would take me to remember that THEY’RE GROSS.

Because if I’m working on one skill in my old age, it’s turning down bad-for-you food if it’s not frickin delicious. If I’m going to put crap into my system, I try to make sure it’s sublime.

But yesterday, I had to go to yet another meeting, and I felt like I deserved a treat for going, so I went to the vending machine. The pickins were slim. I don’t know if Three Musketeers was my best choice, but when you’re trying to avoid gluten, options are limited.

Anyway, my status update led to an academic discussion of Three Musketeers’ worth when juxtaposed against other works in the chocolate bar canon. And a scientific discourse on the peanut butter-to-chocolate ratio in mini Reese’s cups vs. that of the full-sized variety.

Enlightening stuff.

So, my question is: which sweet treat do you pass up even when it’s offered to you free of charge, and which, despite its required money- and calorie-expenditure, will you snarf anyway because it’s totally worth it?

I'll let you know right now that, lately, this stuff has been haunting my dreams.

  1. Heya i am for the first time here. I came across this board and I find It truly useful & it helped
    me out a lot. I hope to give something back and aid others like you helped me.

  2. Hmm is anyone else encountering problems with the images
    on this blog loading? I’m trying to figure out if its a
    problem on my end or if it’s the blog. Any feed-back would
    be greatly appreciated.

  3. Hi there exceptional blog! Does running a blog such as this take a massive amount work?
    I have virtually no understanding of coding however I
    had been hoping to start my own blog in the
    near future. Anyhow, if you have any recommendations or tips for new blog owners please
    share. I know this is off topic however I just had to ask.
    Many thanks!

  4. Have you ever considered about adding a little bit more than just
    your articles? I mean, what you say is important and everything.

    But imagine if you added some great photos or video clips to give your posts more,
    “pop”! Your content is excellent but with pics and clips,
    this site could definitely be one of the most beneficial in its field.

    Awesome blog!

  5. I blog often and I truly thank you for your
    information. Your article has truly peaked my interest.
    I’m going to book mark your website and keep checking for new details about once per week.
    I opted in for your Feed too.

  6. Greetings from Idaho! I’m bored to tears at work so I decided to browse your website on my iphone during lunch break.
    I really like the info you provide here and can’t wait to take a look when I get
    home. I’m surprised at how quick your blog loaded
    on my phone .. I’m not even using WIFI, just 3G ..
    Anyhow, wonderful site!

  7. Hey there would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re working with?
    I’m looking to start my own blog in the near
    future but I’m having a hard time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your design and style seems
    different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
    P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!
