Something to Look forward to.

A posting I stumbled across.


I was at the supermarket a few weeks ago and I picked up some butter. I didn't really look at the packaging; I just saw that it looked like butter and said '60%' on it. Because I try to eat fat as much as possible and I translated this as meaning 'high fat content,' it went in the basket.Flash forward two weeks. It's seven am, and I decide to cook some eggs. I heat the pan, and reach into the fridge for the butter. A moment of panic - the butter is all used up, just a wasted wrapper left. Then I spot the other block lying in wait in the back of the fridge. Sigh of relief. And then I open the fresh pack of butter, and it looks like this:And I think, with the cobwebs of sleep still in my head, 'Who the @#&*^#' Then I read the front of the package, and it looks like this: май масло шоколадное.
That's right: chocolate flavored butter. I have no idea what you're supposed to do with it, but I do know that it's awesome, and that it is also proof that regarding some scientific innovations, Central Asia has made advances that America hasn't even dreamed of.

I'll have to be on the look out for some of that! It might make chocolate chip cookies even chocolatier! :)
