Whoa...

I...

Intentional eating ...?

Yes, usually I intend to eat the things I end up eating. It's not like the coleslaw I had with dinner accidentally ended up in my mouth and I accidentally chewed and accidentally swallowed it...

Although I have been known to unintentionally eat chocolate. The chocolate bar is there, and a couple of minutes later it has inexplicably disappeared.
 
It looks like a variation of Matsuo Emoto's "work", except they improved the commercial potential by offering chocolate instead of water. Emoto's probably slapping his forehead in anguish right now, crying "Damn, why didn't I think of that? I could be so much richer!"

Actually, the "intention" is infused in the food when it's made by "advanced meditators--some who have trained with the Dalai Lama", not by the consumer. As in "I put good thoughts into this food for s/he who will eat it even though I don't have clue who s/he is".

Makes sense now, right?:confused:
 
One time I unintentionally swallowed a dead fly while drinking from a can of soda. I don't know why I swallowed the fly. Perhaps I'll die.

Riiiiight....

(I was making a joke about the term that they're using being "intentional", btw. I did actually understand what they meant. I just found their wording so, so, SO, hilarious I had to make a joke)
 
Okay, got it.:) Yes, that whole page was like a Simpsons show: you haven't finished laughing at one line when you start laughing at the next.

Had the Dalaï Lamas invented chocolate, Tibet would still be a free nation !
 
It sounds a little like the kind of thing that would be set up by biodynamic gardeners who found Anthroposophy too coldly rational.

I like this bit of phrasing:
All the products from Intentional Chocolate include this intention: “Whoever consumes this chocolate will manifest optimal health and functioning at physical, emotional and mental levels, and in particular will enjoy an increased sense of energy, vigor and well-being for the benefit of all beings.”

I don't dispute the statement, but isn't that just a fancy way of saying what we already know, that chocolate is full of really nifty chemicals that make you feel good?

Well, that certainly convinced me!
