1. c. I'll admit it, I'm a sucker for those magical combinations of words no native English speaker could ever come up with.
2. b. I used to work at Baskin-Robbins, which is why I immediately recognized the sugary, slippery firmness of Meltykiss. It's not like I freeze chocolate frosting just to gorge myself on it later, so don't worry. Not even during a chocolate blackout.
3. b. Sad but true.
4. a. Amazing, isn't it?
5. c. Last night I attended a whiskey-tasting party, foolishly thinking I could post this week's Candy Friday when it was over. Eight of twelve tastes in, I was hopelessly smashed and any thoughts of operating machinery, including a computer, was lost. I did, however, end up winning the most expensive bottle of Scotch we tasted, a peaty and delicious Lagavulin, so I hope you will excuse my drunken negligence. It was at least an expensive and tasty negligence.

Meltykiss? What a great name! And what a great slogan!
Maybe if you eat it while sipping from your newly won Scotch, it will be an altogether more pleasurable experience... ;)

I must say I am still fond of the Meltykiss, though I might just try freezing some chocolate frosting now.
Glad you had fun, you lush!

I do have to agree with you, I could not have resisted Meltykiss' name either. Although, its cocoa covering does look like a warning...
