Ode to Cecemel

When I was in Belgium...

Oops. Sorry. Didn’t mean to (see post below)!

Anyway. I asked for a hot chocolate at the hotel and became a bit alarmed when out came a can of refrigerated chocolate looking Yoo-Hoo drink type stuff. "When in Rome" I thought, or Belgium more like it. Anyway, it was heated and served to me in a glass mug with some gorgeous whipped cream and chocolates on the side. Simply wonderful, and not too chocolatey, where you get a tummy ache from the richness.

Nice.

On my way home, I saw Cecemel in the vending machine at the train station. It’s nice hot or cold. Imagine my happiness when I noticed it in Holland too, under the name of Cocomel. Life is sweet. Literally!

If only they had this stuff in the States.
