Seriously tho can't beleive that many of y'all chose cheese over chocolate, like based on taste alone (without getting into the ethics behind both- which well...will probably tell us to quit both), let me tell you I am not even vegan (I am vegetarian tho) and I a big cheese lover (for nice greek cheeses and when travelling other local ones alone tho-like yeah still dreaming about that mozzarella and about going to the swiss countryside some day to try those Gruyèress and Vacherin Mont d'Orss ), but chocolate? Chocolate? *Chocolate*? Chocolat? Cioccolato!?🤌 How could you?

Anyways sorry in advance for this super cheesy comment

I know most of these comments are about cheese and chocolate (I’m giving up chocolate by the way) but I wanted to come in with huge appreciation and love for Bel segment. Maybe it lines up that I’m an Aquarius, maybe cause I just turned 30 (😱) and am having some sort of crisis, but this lines up with me big time right now. I just started reading an old-ish book called ‘the subtle art of not giving a fuck’ and when I tell you my whole perspective has changed. I was feeling a little lost and the issue was I had no idea what I did or didn’t give a fuck about. Like really care about though, not like who cut me up on my drive home from work, but in life and what I want from it. This also means realising what people really care about in general. The freedom I have felt from this is just stunning 🤌🏻✨ I also want that whole paragraph in my brain forever 💕

Hello friend! I am 31 now and can give you an answer as to what kind of crisis you're having- me and my friends call it the "30 Life Crisis" :P I found it to be really introspective too, and afterwards, I felt like I got better at knowing my worth. There's something about understanding yourself that builds self-confidence, and leads to a satisfying "I know who I am" :)

Love this Felicia 💕 learning my worth and who I am has been such a journey- I finally feel like I can almost see it. 30 is the beginning x

Exactly! It's the beginning of living life with a better understanding of yourself, and we will only get better at it as life goes on! :)

I'm having an existential crisis over this cheese vs chocolate thing. I'd cut off my arm rather than go without either of those.

I think chocolate can be too sweet/ rich sometimes where as cheese is a winner all round

Hey team, I'm a Surfdale resident on Waiheke Island and somewhat miffed that I have yet to find a sausage in my letterbox!

I did offer Squish a tour of the local vineyards last year, so if you're heading over next weekend hit me up. There's a wee posse of SYSCA fans here keen to hang and investigate the Serial Sausager with you 😋
