today i had been out with my friend.with no good eatery nearby,we got inside a bakery just for a time-pass eating,just a little hungry.we saw a 10 yr old boy taking the orders with no elderly person around.stop! my post isn't about child labour though i felt bad for that kid.it's about something much more that i couldn't tolerate!
trivia:- i love chocolate in any form- be it hersheys,kisses,dairy milk,cakes,milkshakes,brownies,ice-cream(less preferred),choco-nuts,funshakes,creams,desserts,chocolate-flavoured milk,choco-biscuits.....anything that's good chocolate!
trivia might have hinted you on what i ordered at the bakery-yes,a simple chocolate cake.my friend,quite diet-conscious[;)] ordered a mango drink-SLICE( oh my my! why didn't i?!!) i explained how chocolate was the perfect thing for the day.neatly cut into 4 pieces that boy gave it to me in a paper-plate.i rested myself on the cushions and... and...unfortunately had the first bite!!
where were my taste-buds?sweet was to be detected at the tip of the tongue,if i remember my primary-school biology right.ok..let me wait..no..absolutely tasteless!! oh this is just a whole lump of maida man!! filled with that brown coating of..yuck!cocoa i guess..bad cocoa..i will never ever say that it tasted bad,for there was absolutely no taste in it! it's not at all worth the Rs.10 i paid! i opted for the cherry on top..lo! that was sick! mucky creamy layer on top!
i could see my friend happily finishing the last drop of SLICE. i still had that lump to finish.i had so much hopes that at least every next bite would be better.. i fled the place gulping lots of water to get rid of the cocoa(pls don't call it chocolate) from my mouth! my friend couldn't suppress her snicker seeing my pathetic state... poor me:(:(
back home,i still don't feel any taste in my tongue,with that tinge of that yucky flavour still around my mouth.brushed twice,mouth washed once and feeling slightly better now.hope the dinner isn't affected !
lessons learnt:
1. don't try chocolate-flavoured anything at new places.
2.don't wait for the last crump to taste good.
well, on the brighter side, it made u brush your teeth! ;D
