Food / Politics The Most Delicious President Ever?
Posted by Wm.™ Steven Humphrey on Tue, Jan 20, 2009 at 10:55 AM
My new pal Justin just gave me this: Choc-O-Bama!
Naturally I was thrilled… and then felt immediately weird. Should I feel weird?
IS THIS RIGHT, IS THIS WRONG, OR WHAT?
$20, available at pinkwhitebrown.com, and on local shelves at Cacao, Little Green Grocer, Alma Chocolate, Tilde, Elsa & Sam, Grass Hut and Cork! (Plus a dollar from every box sold goes to charity.)

I work at elsa+sam and we have been conducting an in-store survey like this as well. I feel that it is alright. The artist that makes the Choc-O-Bamas is a chocolate sculptor, it's the medium in which he works, he approached it not with race in mind but rather an attempt to honor this great man. If you don't like it for whatever reason, don't buy it.
By the way, these are DELICIOUS! Really great chocolate used here.
