June 6 2005 -- Eurotrash
|
So there I was, in New York City at a French restaurant with a Buddhist girl talking about American real-estate. After leaving her I came across a middle eastern staffed quick mart thing and I bought myself some German candy. Upon reaching my Canadian built car I traveled back to my home in New Jersey where I sat down with my Japanese camera and began to write this here review on an keyboard made in Thailand.
Toffifay. I didn't know it was German when I bought it but just by looking at it you can tell it's Euro. Not really sure what it is about the packaging but it just oozes European styling. But that does not matter. I am not really sure how to pronounce it either, Toffifay. Toff-if-ay? Toffi-fay? To-fif-fay? If anyone knows please comment and let everyone else in on the info. But what is this Toffifay stuff anyway? Why was it caling out to me in the store "TRY ME!"? Did I really want this stuff or was I just looking for a way to break the $20 in my pocket so I would have change for the train back to my car? Maybe it was all somehow all related. The Buddhist girl, the French restaurant, the German candy, oh man, fate!
Okay, so maybe the Fates had nothing to do with it at all and it was just candy with a big "TRY ME!" written on it's wrapper. Instead of it being some crazy chain of events meant to give me clarity and the secrets of the universe I might just be a sucker for things that have labels like that on them. Fancy looking candy though, it it's gold wrapper holder thing and all. This is the kind of stuff you could have out after a fancy party and fancy people could eat it and feel good about themselves. According to the wrapper it comes in a 15 pack size so that would make your party planning even easier as you would not need to some bodega and load yourself up with the little 4 packs. Wouldn't your guests be impressed that you bought fancy imported candies for them to end their evening with? Now that the US-German embargo is over no one will be offended and you can eat away guilt free.
 "A whole hazelnut in chewy caramel with chocolate hazelnut filling and chocolate"
Is it just me or does that not sound right? Maybe its the Euro tongue coming out again, white man's version of engrish perhaps? It gets the point across though. Caramel outside, chocolate in that, hazelnut in that. Pretty good combination. Nothing out of the ordinary. Tastes ordinary too, just as you would expect caramel, chocolate, and a nut to taste. But in this case that is a good thing. The dinner guests might not like the way the caramel melts in their hands if they are fancy pants snobs, but I am sure they will get over it. Good candy though, a nice after dinner type snack. Not sure about it being a good fast food kind of thing but if you are in the mood for what it's made of, well, they this stuff will do you no wrong.
Now if you would, please excuse me, I need to drive to the airport to pick someone up.
