call Nader! oh wait, nevermind

I bought these dark chocolate-covered macadamia nuts at the drugstore because, at $2.99 a bag, they seemed like a good deal for any kind of macadamia nut product, especially since the big jars of non-chocolate-covered macadamia nuts were going for $7. Also, chocolate-covered nuts are a great way to eat chocolate but more healthfully, as the nuts displace some of the chocolate (for this reason, Peanut M&Ms are fantasically more healthful than regular M&Ms -- I think it's less than half the sugar).

Anyway, I ate my first chocolate-covered macadamia nut and it seemed like it was almost all chocolate, very little macadamia. And I thought maybe the company was pulling a fast one, making balls of chocolate with mere macadamia fragments inside. A travesty!

So I put two chocolate-covered alleged macadamia nuts on a cutting board and sliced them open, to reveal the nefarious partial macadamias inside.

There were, however, whole macadamias inside. Call off the presses. I guess it was just more chocolate than I found necessary.

I think I really wanted to be the one who discovered a scandal.
