chocolate basil - does anyone have a source?

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

Could write a good story about FBI and hoarding chocolate basil...Interesting plot haha!

Whiteside County, IL(Zone 5a)

perhaps it is the cure for the common cold and they are trying to patent it for themselves!

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

And the plot twists again...

Those who eat Chocolate Basil become kindly disposed to the entire universe and all its peoples, be they Democrats, Republicans, Christians, Jews, Muslims or whatever.
The FBI and its affiliated agencies within the Department of Homeland Security (HH) have therefore been commissioned to censor this thread.

Winter must be coming. Fantasies are taking over!

Perhaps chocolate basil is the favorite food of an alien colony on Mars, and they are using it for negotiations.

Good to see you still have your priorities straight! LOL

Seriously, take care of yourself and don't worry about the chocolate basil until you're feeling better. It will still be there, if it actually exists! ☺

Ouch! Hope you are better soon.

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

Get better soon! Although chocolate basil is important, your health is more important!

Greensboro, AL

yes. take care. Its too easy to get run down and then it just keeps on coming. I started taking probiotics after a series of infections. It seems to help. Ill find out as the flu season escalates.

Besides its not the basil season yet anyway. But, hopefully someone somewhere has the secret!

It's back!!!! This thread will be legend one day. LOL
If anyone ever finds the basil, there will be a run on the nursery that has it.

But just think - once it is found it is just a matter of time before everyone who wants it will have it through trading :) No need to have it right away...as long as you get it soon! :P

Ozone, AR(Zone 6a)

Well, every now and then i get online and do another search using different words. I HAVE NOT GIVEN UP!!!!!!
Thank you for the thoughtful words. One thing i have found out is most people who have basil also have chocolate or chocolate mint. LOL
Potagere, chocolate is a cure for everything. period!!!!

Ashdown, AR(Zone 8a)

the search still continues for the Holy Grail of basils?

Greensboro, AL

Still searching.

Frederick, MD(Zone 6b)

This thread is at 300 posts, so I started a new one...

Please go to: http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/950343/

After all, it would be awful if somebody found it but couldn't load this thread from dial-up because it was too long!

LOL

Greensboro, AL

Or, they wont be able to find it because it has been moved.

Frederick, MD(Zone 6b)

Well, meanwhile, just "watch" both threads!

I'm sorry if I stepped on your toes by starting a new thread rather than asking you, as thread starter, to do so.

Whiteside County, IL(Zone 5a)

I'm sure if it is found, we can post on both threads. and start a new one… and take out ads in USA today… go on Larry King Live, etc.

Gee, I was also thinking of Oprahand a major USDA White House announcement.

*nods head*

Another option.
Outrageous in concept, I realize,
but . . .
gloria125 could just join the rest of us on the other thread!

This is just a guess, but, I'd think anyone in quest of the "cHOcoLateY Basil"
could follow this basic thread change.

Whiteside County, IL(Zone 5a)

unless it disappears just like the chocolate basil did.

Frederick, MD(Zone 6b)

LOL @ Jim's capital letters!

I'm sure Gloria will hop over to the other thread. I just wasn't thinking and started a new one rather than asking her to do it. I apologized, and I think all is well. :-)

I know you did, and I hope she will.
It was time, even if the "poetry" has gotten a bit "odd"!

Whiteside County, IL(Zone 5a)

There once was an herb from Nantucket…

Frederick, MD(Zone 6b)

... with a mythical flavor of Choc'late...

... some said it was seen ...

Middleburgh, NY

'twas brown and not green

Frederick, MD(Zone 6b)

... if I find some, I'll bring back a bucket!

All right!

Mackinaw, IL(Zone 5a)

Love the limerick!
