==================
Living Harvest Tempt chocolate hempmilk - mild chocolate
flavor somewhat undone by strong marijuana tones. Texture
a little gloppy. Greenish aftertaste. Sorry, I don't get
those who look upon hemp as the new manna or the vegetable
schmoo. It really does look to me like a p.r. effort to
undemonize the weed and eventually legalize it. The
legalization I don't mind, but the p.r. effort I do.

Turtle Mountain Purely Decadent chocolate nondairy dessert
made with coconut milk - this is billed as having an undertone
of coconut, but I find that flavor dominant, which might be
a good thing.

Turtle Mountain Purely Decadent chocolate obsession nondairy
dessert made with soy - chocolate with fudge ribbon and
chocolate chips; sort of thin but not unpleasant. More
chocolaty than most. 

Lindt Lindor balls - I encountered two assortments, one a
European, one New Hampshire. The flavors appear to be the same
(this may be unique to Lindt - other brands dumb down their
US product). Here's what I had, in rough order of preference:
(wrapper - makeup - comments)

black - 60% with dark filling - compared to the others, a bit
of a shock, as the outside actually tastes like chocolate and
is not too sweet; the inside, though very creamy, isn't as
sticky sweet as the others

blue - dark with cream filling - shell almost as sweet as the
milk; cream very smooth and very sweet

brown - milk outside, nocciola filling - I have a soft spot
for hazelnut flavor, and this is a mild but pretty good one;
the milk chocolate is way too sweet but doesn't have that
nasty cheesy Hershey quality

dark brown - milk outside, coffee filling - coffee adds a bit
of welcome bitterness to the filling

light brown - milk outside, peanut filling - the peanut was
as smooth as the others; I prefer the slightly gritty Reese's
style, and Hershey's gets it right with a balancing dose of
salt, which Lindt does not do

light blue - white with chocolate chips, white filling - a
bit of a huh? followed by this curiosity about the nonuniformity
of the shell, which was fun; the filling was essentially just
buttercream

yellow - white chocolate, white filling, altogether a white
experience, essentially like eating whipped cream, not bad

light green and white - milk with white filling - this is
a temporary offering, and I don't see the point of it

red - milk with cream filling - perfectly fine but ehh, there's
nothing to say.
