Very Good
Weight: ~2.12 oz. (60 grams)/~4.48 oz. (128 g.) total bought
Calories: ~250 calories (estimate)
Cost: $4.48 for total mini-slab I bought
Purchased from: Z. Cioccolato, in North Beach, San Francisco, CA

Z. Cioccolato, a store in San Francisco, is a great place to find good fudge and novelty chocolate items. Last night, I bought a 1/4-pound mini-slab of Black Panther* fudge, to try today; and I found some other fun chocolates to sample later. (I did not buy the bacon wallet, or the toast wallet, or the Hostess (King) Ding Dong lunchbox, but I did find a straw that turns ordinary milk into chocolate milk. More on that later.)

My apologies to Z. Cioccolato for the unflattering image of the fudge above; it looks more like a slab of meat than fudge. It looked much nicer in the shop.

*Black Panther is the name of a Marvel comic book character. Also, The Black Panthers name refers to an African-American revolutionary group and political party that was active in the San Francisco Bay Area. Both the character and the group came into being in 1966.
