I've seen this before on Survivor Man. The question is, can I use chocolate to polish my stainless sink or the bolt on my 870?

What a waste of good chocolate[Coffee]

As someone who loves chocolate and doesn't care about his appearance because I already got a woman I agree, what a waste of chocolate.

I do want to try this, but I better use someone else's chocolate and save my own for eating

Tried it. But I cheated. I used Dremels polishing rouge. Hand polished in about 2min with for a home test(instead of1-2hr w/choc). Focused a good spot of light. To cold and windy for me to be patient enough to start the fire. I also heard toothpaste works well for the survival aspect.

I can see it now~~~~~~
Dateline: Woodland Park
Authorities today are baffled by a recent string of apparent arson cases. While investigators have been unable to find evidence of any standard accelerants, they have found soda cans and chocolate bars at the scene of every fire.
