Trough-o-chocolate

Yesterday marked the opening of the brand new Whole Foods in downtown Austin. Bigger, better, more amazing than before, it is to be a mecca for foodies north and south of the river. I was only somewhat excited until my friend Dipu just shared a tidbit: the new Whole Foods boasts a "Chocolate Enrobing Station". What is that you ask? As I did? It is a trough of chocolate, people. A whole TROUGH of CHOCOLATE in which you can dip...well, anything I suppose. First I was thinking marshmallows, cookies, graham crackers, then my mind moved to strawberries, then...I wondered if I could get a certain someone to go over there with me. HA! Not really...well, maybe........... But the point is, can you even imagine such a thing??? I'm going to have to make a special trip down there this weekend just to wrap my brain around it.

So here's the question: if you had access to a chocolate trough, what would you dip? Oh, what an amusing way to pass a gloomy Friday afternoon... let's hear it, people!
