Goodbye and Good Riddance 2009: So long and thanks for all the fish.  

Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Oh, and 2009? Don't think we've forgotten about you

As food goes, white chocolate is pretty white. You've been getting some funky stuff.

I'd call it beige at its lightest. To me, beige =/= white.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Your standards for food white are very strict.

Your standards for food white are very strict.

milk, plain yogurt, outside of a hardboiled egg = white

white chocolate, white cheddar =/= white (I never understood why they call the orange cheese "yellow" when I think "white" cheddar is approaching yellow on it's own).

But I'll admit that may just be me.

This will only get to end with me sending Snowies to all of you white chocolate haters, won't it?

I'm not a white chocolate hater, but you can send me Snowies anyway!

Yes. And, um, I hate white chocolate. Really.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'm not a fan of white chocolate and I agree that it isn't chocolate, but what I've seen certainly looks white.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

White chocolate is basically the cocoa fat, right? So it's sort of like chicken fat. You wouldn't eat a spoonful of chicken fat and say you were eating chicken, or at least I wouldn't. To me, eating chicken means eating a specific part of it—the muscle, with perhaps some fat included. Like chicken fat, white chocolate can be a worthwhile ingredient in other things, but I'm not sure I'd eat either one by the spoonful on its own.

Ok, I used to like white chocolate...
