Have you ever played the game where you try to think of a food that could not be improved by either cheese or chocolate? It’s nearly impossible to think of one. That got me thinking… what if the two came together?! Would it work? Is that too much of a good thing all in one place? NOPE! It turns out people have been doing it for years all over the world.<\/p>\n

In the country of Colombia, cheese and chocolate has become a traditional delicacy. It is an everyday routine to get a thick cup of hot chocolate with a few slices of Queso Compasigna, which means country or rustic cheese (the closest comparable cheese would be a mild mozzarella for us). The idea is you break up the cheese and put it into your hot chocolate. As the cheese melts partially, you eat it with a spoon. Sounds strange, but I’ve been assured that it is actually wonderful.<\/p>\n
