My west coast brother informs me that today is "Chocolate Covered Anything Day." Now I will readily admit that I am a chocoholic (it's a real thing) but, even with my intense love of chocolate, especially dark chocolate, there are some things I would not cover with chocolate.
Some things are fine covered with chocolate like pretzels or cherries or strawberries or caramels.
But some things just shouldn't be coated in chocolate. Would you coat your table with chocolate or your front porch? Even if we consider only edible things, do chocolate covered scrambled eggs sound good to you? Or chocolate covered fried chicken? Chocolate covered asparagus? Chocolate covered Swiss steak?
I think you get my point. I am perfectly happy to celebrate chocolate many times during the year but I do think today should be renamed.
How about "Chocolate Covered Some Things Day" or "Chocolate Covered Appropriate Things Day?" Or at the very least "Chocolate Covered Anything Edible Day?"
