CHOCOLATE WITH NUTS: THE DEFINITIVE POLL

Pistachio as ultimate preference. Hazelnut as convenient favourite. Peanut as dirty affair.

Hazelnuts. Delete this poll.

imo the only nut that goes from "fuck yes, more of this" to "ok, that's enough" faster than the hazelnut is the macadamia

A hazelnut actually is a nut, of course, none of the others are, they're mostly drupes... a botanical pedant writes.

I partial to a Brazil nut, I love all nuts except macadamias, which are sort of nauseating.

... drupes or seeds, a second botanical pedant corrects the first one.

ah yr right though, Brazil nuts in chocolate can be awesome. brazil flavored toffee = best toffee

good chocolate > good nuts >>>>>> bad nuts >>>>>>> bad chocolate >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> chocolate with nuts in it

no it goes nuts > chocolate with nuts > chocolate

the real nuts are itt if you ask me

The cursed thread taught me that nuts can taste chocolate.

Cashews
Pecans

^^ bofa deez nuts

xp lol

I want to live in the alternate universe where pecans are one of the cheap nuts

Down south, maybe?

Raw, roasted, salted, unsalted, as a snack, as part of a dish or a salad.

Chocolate is for another day.

Never had chocolate with this variety of nuts. Usually cashew, pistacchio, hazelnut, peanuts, that's it. This wouldn't happen under communism.

I'm sorry but the correct ranking is this:

Chocolate > chocolate with nuts > nuts > chocolate > ...

nuts, fuck em

hazelnuts are more euro, peanuts more USA imo
Voted almonds

Almonds is indeed the correct answer.

in b4 "deez"

dammit

pvmic

almonds M&Ms are the best kind of M&Ms imo

re: this poll, I like nuts and I like chocolate and when you put nuts in chocolate you are weaponizing chocolate into a gum-shredding nightmare

Almonds for Best Nut. I'm a major spender on almonds but I mostly like to mix them with raisins and blueberries.

Almonds dipped in honey are proof positive that the gods exist. Praise be to Demeter.

re: hazelnuts

RITTER SPORT POLL

Not a nut but chocolate covered coffee beans are the business.

The first five or so of those are great. After that I long for a nut.

Yeah Ritter Sport hazelnuts are swaying my vote

Though if they made a pistachio bar...

Hazelnuts, I mean come on, what an omission.

Can't believe no one has mentioned the ICP, which stands for Insane Clown Posse -- their fans are called juggalos

I prefer chocolates with soft fillings but probably peanuts.

I’d say roasted macademia. (Macademia mosaique at our shop omnomnom). Second place salty almond (perle amande).

I prefer nuts with soft fillings.

ILE is really slipping if no one can come up with an off color reply to that.

Pecan is the runaway here if we’re talking about things that are at best chocolate-adjacent, eg caramel, roulade, non-chocolate ice cream, various other desserts

But it’s almonds w/ chocolate for me Manish.

macadamias

Adding to the hazelnuts pile. They are perfect with choc.

BTW the best combo is darkest choc covered craisins but thats for another poll I spose.

reading this thread I think walnuts are underrated as a pairing with chocolate

Peanut butter M&Ms are the best M&Ms, actually.

^Definitely.

Voted peanuts. They're the tastiest nut anyway and they happen to go really well with chocolate.

dammmmmit in my haste i voted walnut but I meant Hazelnut. screw my life!

Nah, screw Chachi for skimping on that option. Are they American or something?

that is no excuse IMO

my nephew, in the back seat of the car, around age 8, eating almonds my sister gave him

"mom?"

"yes honey?"

"are we eating wood?"

"basically acorns" is still killing me

I'm fighting the urge to post Sandra Lee's Kwanzaa cake

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Hazelnuts for the win!

Up next:

DEFINITIVE WINE POLL

- white
- rose
- other (please explain why this is better)

lol

Beautiful

Otm

Hah yes!

hazelnuts is the obvious answer but by god the honey salted almond ritter sport is a helluva thing.

Hazelnuts. Delete this poll.

this is up there with the brexit referendum and the people have delivered a message

This is the most ILX poll result of all time.

Damn, dude. Mr. Peanut saw these poll results and died.

It is with heavy hearts that we confirm that Mr. Peanut has died at 104. In the ultimate selfless act, he sacrificed himself to save his friends when they needed him most. Please pay your respects with #RIPeanut pic.twitter.com/VFnEFod4Zp

hazelnuts is the obvious answer but by god the honey salted almond ritter sport is a helluva thing.

Having never had chocolate cashew before (favourite 'flavour' is roasted with salt and black pepper) I have just tried some anfd they are awesome.

à propro de honey salted almond Ritter Sport, I just had a Lindt almond-flour de sel 31% chocolat noir & it was excellent. obv different sans honey plus salt but extremely good. Lindt is the chocolate marque that's risen in my estimation the most in the last couple of years.

I took this poll as a Ritter proxy and voted almond too. The marzipan one is also a go-to

yes I love the marzipan one also
trauben nuss is also a top ritter sport (I like the one with raisons a little bit less than the pure nutt one)

oh now the almond people show up. where were y’all when the filbertarians were stuffing the ballot box?

lol, I swear I silently otm'd your hardship food post

honey salted almond, rum trauben nuss (hazelnuts! also I haven't seen a rum and nut without raisins in this country, alas, so I didn't know that was a thing) and marzipan are p. much my top 3 Ritter Sports, probably in that order, but only because for a while the local shop only did marzipan out of those three and I ate so. many.

think I only managed to buy one of them but the limited edition salty tortilla chip one was good too, if rather off-topic for the chocolate nut thread

tortilla chip noted here iirc: RITTER SPORT POLL

I think, for the purposes of this conversation, we can consider a tortilla chip to be a nut
