Talking Turkey  
  
When it comes to turkeys, there are only three types you need to know about.

1. Your basic model, a large bird of the Meleagrididae family.

2. The jive variety, or individual fond of talking smack and wearing polyester.

3.  Fat Turkey Chocolate, the Austin-based company specializing in truffles handmade from Belgian chocolate, fresh cream, quality liqueurs, and premium spices.

The high-quality delicacies come in flavors like bold hazelnut espresso (ganache covered in dark chocolate), rich chocolate mint (filled with creme de menthe), and zesty chocolate Mexican spice (cinnamon, vanilla, clove, and nutmeg).

There’s even a small selection made with chili peppers (we recommend the chocolate habanero anejo or jalapeno tequila) to add a little kick to your two-step.

And because almost all of the creations contain alcohol, they’re strictly off limits to kids.

And should have adults flying high in no time.
