If you’ve looked around and checked some menus, you’d see that “Dubai chocolate” is all the rage. I saw Lindt selling it while leaving the grocery store, the bougie donut shop has a seasonal Dubai chocolate donut, and a cart opened up selling it locally too.
How has pistachio + chocolate been able to inspire such a marketing blitz? Why do 3 real estate conglomerates in a trench coat pretending to be a country need to invent a new dessert? Lastly, since Dubai is close to Iran, where I assume they source their pistachios, shouldn’t all this pistachio stuff be red?
Tony’s is great. It was I give out on Halloween.
Jeez are you a CEO or something? I couldn’t afford to buy one block of that stuff
Because maybe three people come to my house and I’m not left with hundreds of shitty Nestlé candy that no one will eat.
I used to live so far into the rural area that the houses would only get three or four trick-or-treaters. I’d come back home with a dozen full-size chocolate bars. Given, I probably walked five miles to get those.
Where I live, it’s relatively rural, but there’s such a tendency for parents to drive their kids to neighborhoods that are deemed “better for trick-or-treating” that even if you live in a neighborhood with lots of kids and houses that are close together, if it isn’t one of the “good neighborhoods”, you might not get anyone. I live in what’s essentially a housing development where a school bus fills up completely every morning, and I can count the number of trick-or-treaters who have been to my house in the last three years on one hand.
