Pet najskupljih čokolada na svijetu

Poslije dijamanata, čokolada je najbolji prijatelj svake žene. Možda će vam se učiniti da je riječ o "jeftinom prijateljstvu", ali niste upravu. Vrhunska čokolada koju prave vrhunski čokoladeri sa vrhunskim sastojcima ima i cijenu koja ide uz sve to. Ove čokolade možda nisu skupe kao dijamanti, ali nisu ni vječne. Isplate li se, procijenite sami.

Chocopologie

Čokoladna slastica je najskuplja na svijetu. Pravi je kompanija Knipschildt, a pola kilograma košta 2600 dolara. Napravljena od 70 postotne Valrhona čokolade i slatke pavlake te se 24 sata namače u vaniliji i čistom ulju od tartufa. Kakao prah se dodaje ručno.

Noka

Noka pravi najbolju tamnu čokoladu zahvaljujući odabiru najboljeg kakaa sa plantaža u Venecueli, Obali Slonovače, Trinidada i Ekvadora. Sastoji se od 75% kakaa i ostalih sastojaka, poput kakao maslaca i sl. Ono što je posebno kod ove čokolade jeste da ne dodaje nikakve aditive niti aromu vanilije. Okus je 100% autentičan. Proizvodi je Noka Vintages Collection, a košta 854 dolara za pola kilograma.

Delafee

Za one koji vole da jedu zlato Delafee čokolada je pravi izbor. Umjesto da čokoladu prave sa lješnjacima ili bademima, na svaku kuglicu ručno su dodali pravo jestivo 24-karatno zlato. Od ostalih sastojaka u čokoladi ima šećera, ulja od kokosa, kakao maslaca, mlijeka u prahu i vanilije. Čokoladu prvi švicarski Delfee, a pola kilograma košta 504 dolara.

Richart

Čokolada Richart možda jeste četvrta najskuplja čokolada na svijetu, ali je napravljena od 70% Criollo kakaa iz Venecuele kojeg smatraju najkvalitetnijim kakaom za čokoladu na svijetu. Zrna kakaa su fino usitnjena tako da daju jedinstven ukus čokoladi. Richart čokoladi se dodaju najbolje vrste badema, kupina, jagoda te mnoštvo egzotičnih začina. Richart se proizvodi u Francuskoj, za 120 dolara dobit ćete pola kilograma čokolade.

Godiva G

Slavna Belgijska čokoladerija Godiva, nedavno je predstavila “G” kolekciju. Čokolade se prave od različitih sastojaka, poput smjese sa 100% kakao maslacem, tasmanijskim medom te meksičkom ljutom čokoladom. Godiva G kolekcija je najjeftinija. Košta "samo" 177 dolara za pola kilograma.

In popular culture

• The Swiss Army Knife is a signature of the American TV show MacGyver, wherein MacGyver often improvises tools that are needed to solve problems. He often used his knife to help build mechanisms out of common items, which led to sayings such as "making a rocket out of a matchbox and a paper clip." In fact, this has led to many discussions to attempt to list the variants that were used. Current lists show nearly every model available in the US during filming (see: list of problems solved by MacGyver).

• The Swiss Army knife has also been parodied in animated TV shows such as The Simpsons and the animated version of The Tick, in which a fictional Swiss Army squad carries backpack-sized versions of the knife.

• In Eddie Izzard's performance of Glorious, he portrays the Vatican's Swiss Guard as being armed with SAKs, and proceeds to highlight the perceived uselessness of some of the tools commonly featured on them: "I don't know what this one is for. I can open a can of beans with this one...in a week."

• In his 2002 HBO special Robin Williams: Live on Broadway, Robin Williams asks in regard to the Swiss Army, "How butch is an army that has a wine opener on its knife?" (notwithstanding the knives used in the Swiss army lack the corkscrew), then impersonates a Swiss Officer briefing his men before battle: "Many of you men have never opened a Chardonnay under fire. First of all you take out the wine bottle, pull out the cork, smell it, say 'meat or fish' and throw!"

• In the movie Naked Gun, the character Ted Olsen shows Frank Drebin an invention of his, the "Swiss Army Shoe". The shoe has a spring-loaded knife that can come out of the front, plus various other tools that can be pivoted off the sides of the shoe.

• In Adult Swim's animated comedy series Metalocalypse, character Skwisgaar Skwigelf sports a custom "Swiss Army-tar", complete with authentic moving parts and even a bottle opener.

• In the Canadian show The Red Green Show Harold is given a Swiss Army Knife (with a version of Doom built in) after selling the show to Switzerland.

• In Ricky Gervais' stand up show Animals, Ricky slates the Swiss, saying "It's not really a loss not having Switzerland on your side in a war is it? With their army. Have you seen the little knives they carry?" adding, mimicking an enemy, "Alright back off he's got some tweezers".

• The Swiss Army Knife appears in two works of fiction by Neil Gaiman. In The Sandman comics the serial killer the Corinthian uses a Swiss Army Knife as his weapon of choice and the villains Mr. Croup and Mr. Vandemar in the novel Neverwhere at one point express their affinity for the Swiss Army Knife.

• In the movie Joint Security Area (film), the Swiss Army officer character played by Lee Young Ae shows her Swiss Army issue knife to a sales girl who asks if she really is a Swiss Army soldier.

• In the film Rushmore (film), Max Fischer is presented with an engraved Swiss Army Knife from his good friend and chapel partner Dirk, to make amends for a previous fight.
