Rocket Chocolate

At the local 7-Eleven, I spotted a box of Rocket Chocolate. I had to give it a try.

Rocket Chocolate is pretty simple, chocolate with caffeine.

According to Energy Fiend, Rocket Chocolate has ~42mg of caffiene per piece. That's not a lot. Most sodas and energy drinks have much more.

The flavor is OK, but not something I'd crave. To me, the Rocket Chocolate tastes like a dark chocolate truffle with a hint of mint and a little bitterness. Not unpleasant, but not lip smacking good.

I think they would be great to keep at your desk for a quick pick-me-up when you don't have time for a cup of coffee or soda. More for the casual caffeine user, not the hardcore energy drink aficionado, like my brother. In his world, these would be fairly weak sauce.
