When I was in high school I tried convincing some of my friends that the “Diet of worms” is what the Catholic church wanted Martin Luther to eat for repentance. That was back in the days went kids in high school could read and the story didn't last very long.

Think twice before biting into a chocolate to loose yourself in its taste.

Even Reuters is misspelling this word.

Luther would approve. He went to a Diet of Worms.

Growing up Lutheran, and hearing about the Diet at Worms, I know lots of us at age six thought that Luther felt his opinions so strongly that he Ate Worms to prove his point.

Kind of like a triple dog dare thing.

Loose?

What an idiot. I would like to take this opportunity to ask the board a question. I see loose mistaken for lose ALL the time here on FR. I've always wondered....is this an inside joke like "series" or "hugh" and I missed it's Genesis? Or, is it really just people being stupid?

Physician, first heal thine "it's" ("its") and "Genesis" ("genesis"). :-)

I had that once with a old bar of Godiva chocolate....

Set it on the center console of the car and opened it at a light....

Nibbled on it for 15 minutes while driving until half the bar was gone....then I noticed the bar was moving...

Funny thing...it actually tasted pretty good....not good enough to finish though.....

A couple of years ago the local county DNC was giving out little plastic US flags while they were walking in a Christmas parade. Proudly printed on the flag was “Made in China”. I made them take mine back.

Soak it in Tequila. That kills the worms.

Thanks for the post!

This morning on the Bill Bennett show a caller from Belgium stated that worms in the chocolates was a problem there. The chocolates were from China.

Isn't Belgium synonymous with chocolates?

Beware.

I found nothing in google news about the Belgium story.

To the target market (China) for these chocolates, the presence of a maggot may have been both a feature and a bug.

Purchase products that are 100% MADE IN THE USA!

Continue to take a stand and be a voice for our pets and our loved ones! Do everything you can to boycott goods made by China and this includes ingredients made in China, Chinese plant processing and Chinese exporting!

Our animals couldn’t speak for themselves.
Were they the canaries of the food chain?

We have to protect our families now.
BOYCOTT CHINA!!!!!!

Here is a list of a few items made in USA.
