就是，巧克力的茶壶一泡茶就化了。

嗯，当时听了就觉得太形象了，笑死我了，而且他形容的那个人真是个chocolate teapot

太形象了！

哈哈~~巧克力和茶不搭档，果然无用。

小同学理解错了，茶壶是用来泡茶的，巧克力做的茶壶一倒热水就化了，所以是指它没用。。。

Chocolate is made up of a variety of fats (from cocoa bean, milk, etc), which happen to melt at just below body temperature so the chocolate melts in your mouth. This is why chocolate is so obviously a bad material for making teapots, hence the phrase "as useless as a chocolate teapot" or "About as much use as a chocolate teapot".
