The chocolate stones are a fascinating concept given that real rocks and stones have no flavour as they don't give off the gases that inspire taste and smell.
Sadly I haven't tried them, Johanna - one of my travelling companions bought both items as gifts while in Perth. I gather the stones are candy-coated and so are similar to smarties or m&ms.
Sticky, since I didn't get past the plastic these stones didn't smell much either! Your nerdy info is always welcome here. :-)
Kitchen Hand, perhaps this is more like what Thomas sees every time he encounters soap! I can't imagine how he gets beyond the smell.
Which of these two pictures gets your mouth watering?
My eyes tell me I would definitely prefer to bit into the soap! How do the chocolate stones taste?

ReplyDeleteThat must be why one-year-old Thomas tries to eat soap. He doesn't know it is soap.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday (for yesterday), beef girl.
