When I was a kid I had fond memories of super cocoa, hot coca made with TWO whole packets.
When I tried this as an adult I excitedly mixed in the two packets, carefully topping with a perfectly toasted marshmallow.
When I took a sip I nearly puked, my memories had deceived me!

and that's my cocoa story  ^-^

I've made Hot cocoa with , Soy milk, peanut milk, pecan milk, almond milk, walnut milk, RICE milk,

They all taste great.

The only milks that don't work is cashew  (tastes funky and too rich), and pistachio which are gritty.

Pecan is more savory,  so it will feel more like a cocoa soup..

if you're making the milk, make sure to use a fine mesh milk bag, and a powerful blender.

Blue is nitrogen. There's no Na (hence why glutamic acid). MSG is the sodium salt of glutamic acid, which is 2-aminopentanedioic acid.

Tp4 actually got an A in organic chem in highskoo hahahaha,  but never pursued it for fear of industry testing secret mind-control agents on employees.

The biggest trick they ever played is letting you believe they haven’t started controlling your mind yet.

I guess the reason they call these “milk” is because no one would buy “nut juice”

Tp4 misunderstands. Obviously they wouldn't test it on their own employees, those are much too valuable (and paranoid). Instead they test them on the general public, which is much more useful anyway.

The might not risk their -good- employees,   but they'd be willing to trial it on the newber ones.

Since we are on the subject of cocoa let me ask you something.

At some point in the beginning of 2018 I am going to purchase a soymilk juice maker for the purposes of making chocolate soymilk juice.

What would be next level A) powdered chocolate and B) sweetener to go with?

So far in my research Date Sugar seems to be healthiest over all the options.  Would you agree, and would it be ok for my purposes?

What about powdered chocolate though?  I'm looking for the healthiest but also tastiest version.  What you got?

The type of cocoa powder is not critical, as long as it's low in impurities which simply won't dissolve.

Date sugar is best in terms of antioxidant and nutrients, but again, here we run into the trouble of the date fibers not dissolving which is contra to the expected smooth texture of Hot-Cocoa..


There's nothing wrong with Gritty hot cocoa, but smooth is the common preference.


I believe the ideal simple sweetener to be dextrose...



Rice milk (juice) is very interesting because if you spin that up long enough, it has a very mild sweetness to it..

And Tp4 loves rice..

How about Black Strip molasses then?  In cold soy milk juice it will probably not mix well but right out of the soy milk juice maker it should still be hot enough to mix perfectly.

I've not had black strip molasses,  but if it's anything like regular molasses, it's got a pretty strong yankee candle smell..

Not sure if that would clash with the cocoa..

try using cat semen instead of creamer or milk, it's very unique

Nt,  I can not understand why these things are at all part of your internal dialogue..

At what point were you exposed to this line of information enough such that it could ever spontaneously export from your logic matrix.

Something can not be "very unique". It is either unique or it isn't.

BTW, they eat semen-flavoured potato chips in the UK. But they call it "Salt and Vinegar Crisps".

Besides, they make expensive coffee out of cat**** anyway. Might as well add a dash of cat semen while you're at it.
