    I've hauled loads of cream to Hershey in that area. There's a highway there named after the plant, but I don't remember the name or it.

    I’m diabetic and whiskey and beer helped keep my sugar low.
    of course I was in a different career, Landscsping. They sound good right now

    Maybe not chocolate bunnies, but powdered sugar can easy burn fast enough to be an explosion.

    Sad story but the real question is what the Hell is in that Chocolate? Maybe it really was a Meth Lab.
