Mr Coeur de Lion Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Spent the day in Tours and got some lunch at a patisserie. One of the things they had for sale was a chocolate covered ball of icing sugar with lots of other chocolate mixed in. They were called Tete de Negre. Couldn't believe it especially as there is a large conginency of personnes noir in Tours, and am surprised nobody has gone off in a flap about it and got them to change the name.
