A place to post memes & images that won't absolutely obliterate your mental health! Memes must not stray into hopelessness and be generally positive or neutral.
I made this with my kid in mind, so that they can have a good, safe place to look at memes, just made to make folks laugh and smile!
Only goofs & silliness. (:

IIRC, the reason American chocolate tastes like vomit to Europeans is that early Hershey products used a method of milk stabilization that created butyric acid in the product
They've since switched to other methods, but now they add butyric acid because the distinctive bitter-sour became something that Americans expected from chocolate to the point that chocolate without it didn't taste 'right' to them
