Are those Dars upon thars? More chocolate!


WEll, I've bitten my tongue all week regarding the ever more depressing news, so here's a more cheerful issue I've had in mind that's gotten picked up on another site! In short, Dars chocolate melts at 22˚C (that's 71.6˚F, as you probably knew already) and the temperature sensing dot and comparative graph ensure that those fine folks at Morinaga can do their best to help you get the ultimate chocolate experience.
By the way, the name ダース 'Dars' is the Japanese word for "dozen." Yep, a dozen pieces of choco in every box for about ¥100.

Def by chocolate?


Hello world, you have got to taste this ~ Ice cream, a little syrup, and eskimo-pie style topping!

In the TV ad, Aoi Miyazaki 'dissolved' in a rocking chair surrounded by cuckoo clocks:

By the way, a word that sounds like 'Def' (デフ) is a term used by Japanese people with hearing impairment to describe themselves.
