No chocolate? I would immediately spend every waking moment to get back to this timeline.

Not meaning to brag, but it kinda feels like I won the thread in the first reply and everyone else has just been fighting the hypothetical and addressing side issues.

The only really hard part was trying to think of an adjective to describe the flavor of chocolate before I came up with “earthy”.
