I've also seen some other "Transformers" flavors - a PB&J blend....

I'm probably one of the very few human beings that doesn't like M&M's. But
no, I'm not weird. I do love most other kinds of chocolate.

I can definitely take them or leave them, all chocolate in fact, save
perhaps some of the lovely Belgian ones. Give me a glass of good,
red wine, anytime, any day rather than chocolate.


Heck, I knew that LOL. Personally I like both.

Publix, our "good" grocery store has had this ad for the last week
advertising a packet of two slices of raspberry sacher torte cake
slices. I tried and tried to resist, but I was in there today, the last
day of the sale, and they were SOOOOO tempting, I succumbed. Currently
they are hidden from Jim. I really only wanted one, but what can you
do?? I hope it reminds me of holidays in Bavaria and the Tyrol.

I'm glad I didn't go today. I was ready to go when he phone rang and after
the phone call I decided to wait for tomorrow. No raspberry sacher torte
for me.

I don't mean to nitpick, but this is a genuine question. I always
thought sachertorte was by definition chocolate and apricot. If
raspberry is substituted, it's still delicious, but then is it still
sachertorte? Or just a chocolate-raspberry torte?

IOW, isn't it the apricot that makes sachertorte what it is?

I will have to inform Publix! I LOVE marzipan, amaretto etc.

However this WAS sinfully good, and reminded me of some of those
wonderful pastry shops in Innsbruck!! Of course I was in my VERY early
20s then, and could eat everything and never gain weight. Sadly, that
changed.
