ChocolateBet: April 7, 2008


Chocolate of the Day:
1 bite
Royal Family Food Co., Ltd.
Mochi-Choco - Cheese
OK - Good; a bit strange, but what I bit into looked exactly like the illustration on the box. You have your orange cheese center, with a white starch/mallow-like layer surrounding the cheese, and then the chocolate coating. I would have eaten more, but I thought the "starch" listed in the ingredients might be wheat starch. (I don't do wheat.)
Wt.: ~.2 oz. bite; total box = 7.4 oz. (210 g.)
Calories: ~20 cals.
Cost: $1.59/box
Purchased from: ? , a little Chinese grocery store in Chinatown, in San Francisco, CA (shame on me for not getting the name; it's not listed on the receipt. I'll try to update this info. later.

Today is Day #4 of Chocolate & Cheese week on my blog here. I went hunting for chocolate cheese in Chinatown in San Francisco yesterday after hearing about (Chesdale?) chocolate cheese slices that are sold in Taiwan. While none of the shop keepers that I asked knew what the heck I was talking about, I did find these Mochi Choco and & Cheese treats. (These are also from Taiwan.)
