NOT diet food

WARNING: IF YOU'RE ON A DIET, PLEASE DO NOT CONTINUE TO READ.






YOU'VE BEEN WARNED. THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE TO STOP BEFORE YOU GET FATTER JUST READING THIS POST...









This is my new favorite treat:


I love choclolate and fruit together. So even though I'm not a huge ice cream fan, when I saw the coupling of pomegranate and dark chocolate, I was very intrigued. And it turns out, these babies are as good as I had hoped. In fact, they're wonderful. The ice cream is fruity and just a little bit tart, and the chocolate is not terribly dark, so if you're not a dark chocolate fan, you should be OK.

Oh, and in case you're wondering which wine to pair these ice cream bars with, Haagen Dazs recommends a fine Bigaro, a delightful, effervescent dessert rosé from Italy. I'm not even joking.

That wine pairing cracks me up. I am not a big fruit and chocolate person either. I like my chocolate with nuts, but the hubby loves fruit desserts and he loves ice cream so we might have to try these.

I have wanted to try those, and now I am sold. They look delish!

Ooooh, man. Those Haagen Dazs bars are trouble! I haven't seen the pomegranate ones yet, I'll have to try that.

Pomegranate and dark chocolate are definitely a match made in dessert heaven. I've got about 10 extra pounds that can vouch for that.

Oh, and your title reminds me of the SNL bit about the Food Network where they call it "porn for fat people." :D
