Horse 2878 - Rollo Chocolate Bar Ratings Index

 The problem with listicles is that they are really bad for your brain. A listicle has no other purpose than to drive and generate traffic for the website in question. It is a kind of tnetennba, if you will. For this reason, as far as the end user is concerned, they appear to be of low effort. While that might be true if the list only contains ten things, the cognitive load on the author more than doubles for twenty items and when it comes to 56 items as is the case here, suddenly the author find themself spiralling into a vortex of obsession.

This list, which is now the official Rollo Chocolate Bar ratings index, is one such spiral into the vortex as time begins to cease to have any meaning during Lockdown II: Electric Boogaloo. The RCB for 2021 is by no means exhaustive, by no means fixed, and by no means sensible. Please note that it is subject to change, on an arbitrary whim and at any given point in time with no explanation whatsoever.

In general, everything arranged by the letter categories has remained in those places for a very long time. It should also be noted that although items in Category F are edible, they thoroughly deserve their ranking and that there are clearly better options. Items in Category A are excellent and will result in genuine delight if offered as a present.
