Quick quiz: these yummy chocolates are being served at…
a) a VIP party at the Savoy Hotel
b) a new, high-end Belgian chocolate shop on Fifth Avenue
c) a Victorian row house in posh Georgetown
d) a public toilet in Hong Kong
Unfortunately, the answer is the Hong Kong toilet, which by coincidence is one of the extremely few places where I myself would say “No, thank you” to chocolates.
I mean, I don’t care how much marble and mood lighting and fresh-cut flowers you have, it’s still a place where we all know why we’re there, and it isn’t to scarf truffles. Tara Joseph-Hui reports:

I seriously can’t stop laughing. This is awesome.
“Whatcha doin?
Eatin’ chocolate.
Where’d ya get it?
My dog, he dropped it.
Where’s he drop it?
In the sewer.
What do you call it?
Puppy manure!”
I’d avoid the brown ones if I were you.
Let’s hope it’s not crappy.
