[ba-filk] Nuts in the Chocolate

["Thomas G. Digby" <bubbles@xxxxxxxx>]

      Are there Nuts in the Chocolate?


Among the goodies in the Con Suite at Consonance 2003 were some imported
candy bars.  That was a problem:  Someone wanted to know if they had nuts
in them, but the labels were all in German.  The resulting discussion got
rather silly.  I've tried to capture some of it in song, although I
suspect you really had to have been there.
