Oh we could use it as heat tiles on the Shuttle! Oh wait, we don’t have a manned space program anymore and their mission is now Muslim outreach. Submission Accomplished...
A problem the US Army tried to solve when sending troops to the Pacific Theater in 1942.
Way back in Viet Nam we had Hershey’s tropical chocolate bars. I think they came in the sundry packs. Loved them.
Maybe this is a new and improved version, but the idea is hardly new.
In 2005, when I started sending packages to troops in Iraq, everybody, including See’s, warned me not to send chocolate during the warm months, which was almost the entire year over there. Of course, I did not pay attention and sent chocolate anyway. In my e-mails to Marines at Fallujah and al-Ramadi, I asked them to let me know if the chocolate arrived in a messy mass; I never received answers to my queries.
At the 2008 Birthday Ball at Disneyland, I asked several Marines why I never received a response regarding the condition of the chocolate when it arrived. One Marine said, “Well, sir, we were worried that you would stop sending it if we said anything. Besides, sir, we’re all about adapting; we just licked the chocolate off the wrappers.”
640 packages later, I’m still sending chocolate out. It’s 120 degrees in Afghanistan and the Navy surgeons, nurses and Corpsmen at FOB Shukvani appreciate chocolate in all forms, even melted.
Thank God for this blessing from Cadbury.
Our nation is going to hell as fast as the phony from nowhere can peddle and we’re going to have heat resistant chocolate.
