Is it just me, or is the best hot cocoa just that - a big ol' mug of hot cocoa? Sans the peppermint, sans the marshmallows, sans all the fru-fru?
Maybe I'm just a purist or an old-fashioned type of guy, but give me a hot cocoa where the only fear I have in drinking it is the occasional burnt tongue, not hunks of candy getting caught in my windpipe or sticky goo getting stuck on my lips.
It's akin to adding nuts to the otherwise perfect brownie recipe... why meddle with perfection?
I'm an entertainment editor at MSNBC.com, and have maintained Pop Culture Junk Mail since August, 1999. The New York Times called the site "one of the best places to explore pop culture online," and Entertainment Weekly included it on their Top 100 Web Sites list. If you like weird food, strange products, and 1970s and 1980s nostalgia, PCJM is your home away from home.
I have a brand new BOOK, written with Brian Bellmont. "Whatever Happened to Pudding Pops? The Lost Toys, Tastes and Trends of the '70s and '80s." Buy it online, and follow our retro reminiscing on our GenXtinct blog,Facebook, and Twitter.

I think that drink is what this text is talking about. :)
