Chocolate is a Vegetable: Chocolate is derived from cocoa beans.
Bean=vegetable.
Sugar is derived from either sugar CANE or sugar BEETS.
Both are plants, which places them in the vegetable category.

Thus, chocolate is a vegetable.
To go one step further, chocolate candy bars also contain milk,
which is dairy. So candy bars are a health food.

Chocolate-covered raisins, cherries, orange slices and strawberries
all count as fruit, so eat as many as you want.

If you've got melted chocolate all over your hands, you're eating it
too slowly.

The problem:
How to get 2 pounds of chocolate home from the store in a hot car. The solution:
Eat it in the parking lot.

Diet tip: Eat a chocolate bar before each meal. It'll take the edge off your appetite, and you'll eat less.

Chocolate has many preservatives. Preservatives make you look younger.

Put "eat chocolate" at the top of your list of things to do today. That way, at least you'll get one thing done.

A nice box of chocolates can provide your total daily intake of calories in one place.
Now, isn't that handy?

If not for chocolate, there would be no need for control top pantyhose.

An entire garment industry would be devastated. You can't let that happen, can you?

This leaves out two things: chocolate covered nuts have protein and good cholesterol and the best of all: dark chocolate has the highest level of anti-oxidants than any food including green tea.

I know the post is done as somewhat of a joke, but...
- There are documented benefits to eating chocolate.
- It helped curb my runaway eating habits back when I was losing weight. After one or two of those little chocolate bars, I'm usually feeling too guilty to eat any more junk food. :heh:
- Nookie potential when shared or given as gift.

:D :D :D
