Maybe you could at least extract some free truffles from them. I imagine they have some Valentines remnants to buy your silence... While you are at it, how about poking at Cadbury's while you are in the UK to create a transatlantic tiff? And they didn’t think you’d have a Google alert set up to see their transgression?

The odd thing about this whole episode is that LCC and I are communicating by blog post without bothering to contact one another directly or even comment on one anothers blogs. (After all, what is a blog but a platform to whinge about perceived slights?) I'm going to go over there right now and thank them. Everybody go buy more salty chocolate. Thanks Kaz!

It looks like you might have actually hurt their feelings by not just talking directly to them by e-mail initially. They put up an apology on their own blog.

If it's going to be such a big part of their site, you gotta wonder why they didn't just ask. I've used comments from fans before, but only in the original context, and only after asking their permission. Isn't it technically illegal for them to do that? On the flip side, if you love salty-sweet, Coco Rouge here in Chicago makes some excellent truffles, caramels, toffees, and bars. They're more artisanal than Lake Champlain, and use higher-quality ingredients. The hard part is, they don't really have a website, so you have to work a bit harder to get your fix - but it's worth it! That's where I go whenever I want something new and different.
