I’m really iffy about fruit. Like 90% of the time I want nothing to do with it. I’ve just never been a big fan. I mean, if I’m going to have something sugary and sweet, I want chocolate. Make sense, right? This is why we all want chocolate chip cookies instead of raisin cookies. Fact. The whole açai bowl trend looks great on Instagram, but I have yet to try one because I want a chocolate version. I’m Planning a trip to Maui next month, and I’m trying to find a place where I can get some sort of chocolate smoothie bowl that isn’t too sweet. Apparently I’m asking for too much, because I have yet to find one.
