See, this is the problem being a chef. you think you made something new but really, it's just a mess— Aaron (@artmazingaaron) September 4, 2020
It's not chocolate, it's mole. An indigenous Nahuatl sauce. You can't deep fry chocolate and expect it to become a solid.— Chris ???????? (@Ou1ixes) September 3, 2020
