Cyrsclin ok well first I don’t remember commenting and watching this video also I don’t think my comment was meant like that I’m pretty sure i meant what would your reaction be and uh calling me a pussy was completely unnecessary
ChoccyMonster16 Google "10 pound chocolate block." Candy makers buy them. If there's a store in your area that sells bulk food and has big hunks of chocolate for sale, they get those hunks by breaking up 10-pound chocolate blocks...and they're more than happy to sell you a whole one.
isla budd I get mine - I generally buy two a year to make Christmas presents from, but sometimes I need three, at a supermarket called Winco Foods. If you have one in your area, go there. Otherwise, choclatique.com, candywarehouse.com, and sweetfactory.com have them. There are two kinds of companies selling these. The first treats them as some sort of a super gag gift..."What do you get for a man who has everything and loves chocolate? Why, a ten-pound candy bar!" The other sells them to people who plan to melt them and make smaller candies out of the chocolate. You want to buy from the second kind of company because the chocolate is of much higher quality and the prices are lower - and to be sure you're shopping in the right place, the companies you want to buy from call these "chocolate slabs."
isla budd Oh yeah, I better tell you in advance: they cost between $60 and $120 apiece, depending on the quality of the chocolate you want and the store you buy it from. One of really nice quality will run you about $65 to $70.
It must take so much self control to work in this factory... On a side note, I don't blame that Augustus kid from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory one bit after watching this.
I wonder why they dont put chocolate in a long tube, cool it, and cut with wire-cutter. That would save a bunch of excess chocolate that needs to be remelted.
Súp Heo You only get the nice gloss on the surface of chocolate if it solidifies in the final shape you want it to be. If you have some chocolate in the house, get it and cut it with a knife. The cut edge will look pretty rough.
Jim Mowreader Yeah, your fact is true, but what about after cutting the chocolate into round shape, we press it with a two-sides hot press which gives the coins not only their texture and also the glossy surface after they are cooled.
+SHTV Maybe...but since chocolate has to be melted to be worked anyway, instead of making the long tube then cutting it and forming the final shape, it's more efficient just to pour it in a coin-shaped mold.
Aw man do these coins bring out memories :D My grandmother used to give me a net of these once in a while when I came on a visit. I think I'll buy a net again someday when I see them, just to honour her memory.
Jim Mowreader 1. The rest of the chocolate gets goes to get reprocessed but the crumbs while could be added later weren't specifically being added back. So unless someone who works there genuinely thinks that an accumulation of half of a chocolate coin that sat there all day or whenever the machines are cleaned is worth it. then alright. and 2. Its a joke.
I personally hate the cheap tasting chocolate coins I dunno if I'm just fussy but does anyone else just tell cheap chocolate from name brand chocolate ?????
Chocolate Coins Used To Be My Number One Favorite Thing To Eat,But Sadly my parents won't get me any more of this. I still remember those memories when i always get these each day!
It depends on which manufacture you are buying from. The big commercial ones like Palmer and others use oil as a main ingredient, that's why they taste like ass. However, if you buy from a REAL chocolatier, like Lindt or an organic company, then you will be hooked as chocolate made by these companies are made with real chocolate, cream, etc.... and taste phenomenal!!!
Do they make bets on how many puns they can cram into a five minute segment or something? Jeez... "My friend Penny coined the phrase 'a chocolate saved is a chocolate earned'. I told her that she wasn't making cents, but she just went along to nickel and dime me out of my last quarter nugget of sanity. That's when I bleep de bloop de bleep bloop beep bop gurgle... ***dead.!"
@EricSchwartz can't get enough of these Chocolate Coinz. When your chips are stacked, your lips are smaked, because underneath the tinfoil, they're also snacks!
I see why these coins are so disgusting. They're basically re-fried beans in the form of chocolate, or in this case, re-melted, re-shaped, re-cooled chocolate. Nasty.
I remember when I was little, and going to preschool, every Saint Patties day they would have a hunt for the Leprachaun's gold.. it was always these gold coins in a big black cauldron upstairs.
It kinda would be cool if the chocolate coins came in different types of chocolate. Like silver could be white and bronze could be dark or something like that.
If I ever work there I would probably do this... I can't wait to work maybe they pay peeps with choco money... *comes in factory* Oh my God forget about money, gimme those 4kg's! *eats a bunch* Man where they gonna put these tubes to stores, they deserve to go to my mouth! *shoves tubes into mouth* Leftovers?! How could they?! These peeps are wasting some goodies in here! *Dives into bin* Next thing I know my boss is kicking me out of the factory... LITERARY!!!
We used the chocolate coins as kids in a game where you bet a certain amount of coins on which side of the dreidel it would stop on. So really, it teaches the importance of gambling :)
You can purchase chocolate coins at just about anywhere now. Such places like supermarkets, even Walmart. Sometimes even at convenience stores they sell chocolate coins.
letsgetverydrunk yes, its a tradition in most jewish familys to have chocolate coins (called Gelt) on hanukah, however the reasoning in this video is false.
It reminds me when I was doing a bet once and I decided to use those chocolate gold coins instead of the real ones. Everyone actually fell for it. I took home a few real gold buffalo coins.=)
Yeah; I know a few people who work in similar industries (making chips etc), and they often get to take the stuff home that wasn't considered good enough to sell. 99% of the time, that just means there was a fault in the appearence or size of the product, not that it wasn't fit for human consumption.
She said they had no value, when I was little you bought toys from your friends with chocolate. If you had something you needed done you paid another kid to do it with chocolate. It has value, depending on the size and wrapper.
