10/25/07 Grif.Net – Chocolate Facts

[Was getting info for my wife’s class on natural foods and found these
amazing facts about the much-maligned chocolate in a 1999 Grif.Net]

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

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

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.

If calories are an issue, store your chocolate on top of the fridge.
Calories are afraid of heights, and they will jump out of the chocolate to
protect themselves.

If I eat equal amounts of dark chocolate and white chocolate, is that a
balanced diet? Don’t they actually counteract each other?

Money talks. Chocolate sings. Beautifully.

Chocolate has many preservatives. Preservatives make you look younger.
Therefore, you need to eat more chocolate.

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?
