Chocolate *nyum nyum!!*

I am one of those chocoholics you know.. For some reason.. they are so.. mouth watering and additive any time, any where.. Even saying it now makes me crave for one..*drooling* So i decided to read on chocolate.. Fun facts.. History.. maybe not all.. but a bit and some surprised me..

Chocolate was known as "food of the devil" but as for Greeks, they call chocolate as the "food of God" *winkwink* As for the Aztecs people *if I am not mistaken, they are the old mexicans*, they served cacao beans drink as stimulant and restorative props.. Even the chocolate itself was served ONLY for warriors, nobility and priests.. the drink was also used in religious things and related to god of fertility.. that's something *(o^_^o)*

And as for now.. a lot has been done to show what effects would chocolate brings.. like.. its not fattening, its a subtle aphrodisiac *explains the fertility god i suppose?* , some kind of psychoactive food, gives effect like drugs *addiction, cravings* and its funny how people say, and this as for women and men, eating chocolate itself can be more.. satisfying than.. sex, kissing, and taking drugs *since its not dangerous and legal*.. Once there was a lady who ate 2 pounds of chocolate per week and her doctor asked her to stop taking sweets at 119 years old and died at 122 years old, 3 years after she stopped.. though there arent any significant proof to it, but whoa!

I also learnt about why women crave chocolate more than guys *ladies - 40%, guys - 15%* That's because chocolate is also rich with magnesium.. When ladies have their pre-menstrual, they produce high amount of progesterone, which promotes fat storage *that's why we want to eat and that's why we are so hard to lose weight girls ;)*.. This just means, we want food and not just any kind of food; FATTY foods!! By I never know that there are certain times when the craving is most intense.. If i am not mistaken.. its in the evening.. kuttt..

Of course there are more to what I have now.. but its up for u guys to read more.. These are just some that for me are interesting.. VERY interesting.. Oh and i just knew too, that the best chocolate to eat is DARK CHOCOLATE since it has less confectionery sugar than other chocolates..

so let us eat dark chocolate!!! *and now i am craving for one.. ish ish*
