Impact
Pink fish gum in chocolate? Zotter clearly having lots of fun back in his experimental-taste lab.
And trout, no less, that swims in rivers, brooks & inlets rather than the great wide ocean, processed into "fish marshmallow".
Ever the Germanic romantic, where's he going with this? Unwashed girl?
Quite the marriage to mimic another German-speaker -- Martin Luther -- who wed Katharina von Bora, one of 12 nuns he helped escape from the Nimbschen Cistercian convent in April 1523, arranging for them to be smuggled out in herring barrels.
Fodder for conversation indeed, right after discussing the theological import of Cheebs soloing on Jesus' Air-Guitar in Danta's Divine White Chocolate.

Appearance 3.3 / 5
Gutting the Fish
| Color: | pale, even jaundiced, pink |
| Surface: | speckled |
| Temper: | emotionless |
| Snap: | waterlogged |
Aroma 6.7 / 10
coconut in all its guises (oil, milk, fresh young meat, dried shredded pieces, shells) supported by marzipan & some spackling
Mouthfeel 10.2 / 15
| Texture: | meal flake & albumin |
| Melt: | choppy |
Flavor 36.4 / 50
muted raspberry leads it out -> immediately capsizes as spackling & sheet rock (shades of raw chocolate) roll over into the trout -> coconut covers it up some but those fishy entrails, now chum, never let the tongue off the hook -> finishes on coconut cake layered with tart raspberry
Quality 13.8 / 20
Über sweet offset by the chum meat.
At less than one-half of 1%, the trout would seem to swim in just for the shock value of marketing it. No such luck. This fish is serious.
Does the combo work? Yes, in an odd, bizarre way, it maintains a balance of forces. And just as M.A.D. (Mutually Assured Destruction) of the Soviet-American nuclear era provided a deterrence against the actual use of those weapons, this too should probably remain submerged someplace, like somewhere in the deep.
A novelty bar to brandish at formal sit-down dinner parties to gauge, just by announcing it, the appetite for dyspepsia among guests.
INGREDIENTS: raw cane sugar, cocoa butter, coconut powder, milk, & flakes, fructose-glucose syrup, milk powder, almonds, pineapple concentrate, cocoa mass, dried raspberries, lemon concentrate, trout, gelatin, vanilla, salt, onions, bay leaves, lemon powder, mint, pepper, Bird's eye chili, lecithin
