Ahah, indeed, I would have nothing against posh baked beans with truffle (even though if you ask me, it would be a huge waste of good white truffle as there would be way too many/strong flavours conflicting here) but no, I did mean the chocolate department. In fairness, one of the ladies there offered me one saying that if I was open minded enough to try it, maybe it might change my mind. I was open minded enough (never say no to a chocolate) and it did not change my mind one bit. It wasn't just the taste which was wrong, but you even had some of the starchy consistency of the baked beans and in a delicate and creamy chocolate truffle, that was mostly wrong, wrong, wrong.
