Notes

References

  • "It makes you think about life, and what a bittersweet symphony it is" is a reference to the song "Bittersweet Symphony" by The Verve.
  • The consumption text about nougat may be a reference to the Terry Pratchett novel Thief of Time, in which Susan, one of the main characters, detests getting nougat in chocolate.
  • The text in which the chocolate is filled with ham and pineapple is a reference to the so-called "Hawaiian pizza," which is topped with both of those ingredients and famously despised by KoL co-creator Mr Skullhead. Judging from the effect, it's a safe bet that he didn't write it.
