They're a dime a dozen in EU

Oh wait you mean the mushrooms not the chocolate of the same name

As a child I only ever knew of the chocolate version of truffles and man, having had both...child me was right. Chocolate truffles are the best.

Is out chocolate with mushroom essence or something?

Truffles are a type of hallucinogenic mushroom. I bought some in Amsterdam once. I think they were called philosopher stones.

US and Amsterdam seem to have different truffles. Weirdly, ours are marketed as European....

Are we still talking about the fun kind (fungi) or the little chocolate things?
