I got a very clever newsletter from Charles Chocolates<\/a><\/strong> today titled: \u201cSofa So Good: Binge-Watching Bites Edition.\u201d<\/p>\n

Inside it recommended specific bars from their Ultimate Chocolate Bar Collection<\/a> to enjoy while binge-watching some popular TV series. It explained:<\/p>\n

\u201cThis carefully selected ensemble of 7 premium chocolate bars is not just a treat; it\u2019s a gourmet journey designed to complement your series marathon.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The first pairing they recommended was their Tres Cojones (Triple Nut) bar with \u201cThis Is Us.\u201d Their reasoning for this couple:<\/p>\n

\u201cOur Tres Cojones Bar, with its blend of almonds, hazelnuts, and pine nuts enrobed in bittersweet chocolate, is as multifaceted and heartwarming as \u201cThis Is Us\u201d. Each nut contributes its unique texture and flavor, creating a family of ingredients that\u2019s as compelling and cohesive as the Pearsons\u2019. It\u2019s a bar that celebrates life\u2019s highs and lows, perfect for savoring during those tear-jerking moments.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Other shows they have recommendations for include \u201cBig Little Lies,\u201d \u201cThe Crown,\u201d \u201cThe Handmaid\u2019s Tale,\u201d \u201cMad Men,\u201d \u201cGilmore Girls,\u201d and \u201cThe Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.\u201d<\/p>\n

Read the whole list of rec\u2019s in the newsletter here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I probably won\u2019t be following these suggestions but it\u2019s only because I don\u2019t watch much American TV anymore. I need suggestions for K-dramas \u2014 as Cacaopod jokes our TV only speaks Korean.<\/p>\n

What have you got for me to enjoy with shows like Knight Flower<\/a>,\u00a0Ghost Doctor<\/a>, or\u00a0Psychopath Diary<\/a>, Charles?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
