chocolate deities

This is the wackiest Google ad I’ve ever clicked on IM. It’s the chocolate deities site, where you can buy a chocolate Ganesh or Buddha. It is very pricey, $24.00 US for a Ganesh.

http://www.chocolatedeities.com/deities.php

it looks yummy, but too pricey for me. Goggle ads can be very entertaining

Thanks for the links.

Two things:
- I learnt from that site that the American singer Ashanti's name is not Hindi.
"Its Akuaba, the Ashanti (Ghana) African Goddess of pregnancy, childbirth, mothers
and fertility"

- If India people buy the Ganesha chocolate, they'll sweat like hell before they bite on
it. (if at all.)

I know, its like I wish they had made a Jesus on the Cross chocolate bar. I mean, if you are gonna make a Ganesha chocolate, why stop at the "bleeding heart" and make the Jesus on a Cross bar already... HAHA

I have seen the Jesus on a stick in chocolate elsewhere, weird. I think I'll just go to Ethel M's factory in Vegas..

Arre,

What are we supposed to do with Ganapathi chocolate. Bite and eat or what.

Then, Ganapathi will create more obstacles for us.

I wonder how my lama would react if I give him a white chocolate Tara for his birthday? It is traditional to give images of White Tara to a lama on his (her) birthday, since she is the goddess of long life. But the mouth is considered impure, so ke garne?
