Melted chocolate should be mixed with a little cream and then poured over ice-cream....

I firmly believe that chocolate is food for the soul

great thread! - its got me drooling....

Try his recepy (dessert for a BBQ):
Make a cut into an unpealed banana (all length), stick two or three pieces of chockolate in the cut and set the banana onto the embers. After a while, the skin of the Banana will be black, the chocolate melted and the banana all mushy. You eat is with a spoon directly out of the skin.

And about non-melting chockolat: we have that already. It's called m&m! So all the taxmoney wasted ...

technically it is the candy coating that doesn't melt, the chocolate still does. I have tested this theory. I have held m&M's in my hand, closed whilst standing in the alabama heat.

It is not an experiment I recommend

The Army is researching this for a simple reason, chocolate (and other candies) have very high energy density (sugar high).

This is an advantage because it allows a little bit of food to go a long way, so soldiers don't have to spend as long eating or have as much in their stomachs if they get gut-shot, and they can carry relatively little weight for the same energy. They need non-melty chocolate because melty chocolate takes longer to eat, gets stuck on things (try to throw a grenade with sticky fingers), and generally causes problems in the field.
