Drew's sister and her husband are visiting and we decided to take the tasting tour at Whetstone Chocolate Factory in St. Augustine. What a treat! Whetstone was a wholesale supplier to giants such as Nestle’s, Hershey and M&M Mars, but now only sells it's own brand. Our tour guide was not only informative, but entertaining as well. We got to "work the line" with a Lucy replica (remember the I Love Lucy episode where she couldn't keep up with the assembly line and was popping chocolates in her mouth to get rid of them?). A reaffirmation of the health benefits of chocolate, had us leaving with a bagful of delectable delights.
