Is it because sweet marriages are too run of the mill? They lack interest?

Idk the total cocoa percentage in this chocolate, Ikea's dark chocolate slaps. It is so amazing and I love it the best.

I prefer Cadbury's chocolate. My favorite bar from them is the Wispa bar or the dairy milk bar. So amazing! love aerated chocolates so much

Wait, it can literally be rocks? I guess chilled rocks wouldn't dilute the drink like melting ice. Still, always thought that was just a fun euphemism.

When you order a drink on the rocks, it means on ice.

That said frozen stones are used for exactly the reason you posit. Does not dilute the drink.
