Why does no one ever mention rhubarb now. Doesn't anyone ever eat it and don't you think it could be nice with some sort of dark choc sauce?

Never seen rhubarb choc. Maybe you should invent a recipe Lou?

You sound like my mother. If God wanted you to have coloured hair and hoops in your ears and nose he would have made you that way.

I LOVE rhubarb and it's VERY good for you. When I was on a drastic diet some years ago and lost 3 stone in just a few months, I ate loads of rhubarb with a dab of plain yoghurt because it's very low in calories (as long as you don't add loads of sugar or cumble topping!).


Chocolate with a soft and delicate rhubarb filling would be delicious.

Old but spicey!

Lou make us all a rhubarb and chocolate pie each and we will give you our opinions. Or maybe Heavenly Truffles should make a rhubarb variety?

I  rhubarb and grow it in my garden. Lou I like your suggestion, I think it would go well with dark chocolate.


At my local bakery they sell rhubarb and cherry slice. It's a sponge cake base with rhubarb and cherry fruit topping. Very nice
