They look like this: ![](http://www.7-11.com.tw/product/popup/pic/041012/24.jpg) You can get them in 7-11. They’re the grossist chocolate I’ve ever had. They’re just coffee beans covered with chocolate basically. So, am I supposed to chew the beans and swallow them? :loco: Well, I tried and it was just yucky. It’s like eating chocolate with ground coffee inside. I ended up spitting the whole thing out of course. I was just wondering if any of you has tried it and actually liked them? They don’t have those in the states, do they? I don’t recall ever seeing them there. Here is the website for all the strange products invented by Starbucks and 7-11: [7-11.com.tw/product/popup/041012.htm](http://www.7-11.com.tw/product/popup/041012.htm) some of them are actually quite good except for espresso chocolate of course. Now if you will excuse me, time for my caffeine fix. :bouncy: ---

Chew of a corner at each end and suck your coffee thru it. Yummy. ---

They have ‘chocolate covered coffee beans’ in Australia, so I’m pretty sure they would have them in the States in some form or other. I woudn’t touch them, personally. > [@Satellite TV](#): > > We have a better method. Buy a box of Tim Tam chocolate wafer biscuits. Chew of a corner at each end and suck your coffee through it. Yummy. Ah, the famous “Tim Tam suck”. There’s a certain skill to timing the eating of the biscuit to the precise second before it disintegrates 😆 ---

However I have had the odd slipup and ended up with the Tim Tam Dribble splashed down the front of my office shirt and tie. ---

I lived on chocolate-covered coffee beans as a university student. I still like them although having little black pieces of coffee beans in your teeth isn’t exactly going to win you many beauty contests. Absolutely perfect treat come finals week. ---

Yes those are available in the U.S. In fact, almost everything is available covered in chocolate these days. ---
