I love dark chocolate and I'm always skeptical of these kinds of studies thinking that the makers of dark chocolate funded them but if it's real, ok :) A hippocampus:

Is that an exotic French food?

[TigersEye]

Chocolate is good on a lot of things but I wouldn't eat on the brain.

What if you eat dark chocolate on a plate?

I LOVE dark chocolate. And since most other people don’t, I’m always getting gifted dark chocolate by other people at work or home who don’t want the ones they got in a box of assorted chocolates or a variety pack. Yum!.

[GaltMeister]

Yummy stuff, too

Just the news I've been hoping for...endless Chocolate!!!

For several years (since turning 80), I’ve consumed 1 small block of Lindt Dark 78% cocoa each day to keep the old prostate healthy...

Urologist who wielded the laser to drill a better channel through the old enlarged prostate when I was 80 recommended it...

Eight years later, it has worked great...

Dark chocolate may do your heart good this Valentine's Day

I could have skipped all the rest. This was literally the bottom line of the study.

Eyeing a bar of 88% cocoa (Non-Dutched) and wondering what percentage of their body weight were the rats fed?

The bar says "Serving size = 1 oz"

My Dad’s recipe, dark chocolate and red wine.
Lived to be almost 94 with little to no mental issues.

Maybe someone should tell hunter biden to cut his coke w/cocoa.

Don’t they have headline editors anymore?

I’m visualizing a Reese‘s peanut butter cup commercial here.

Two zombies talking…

“You got dark chocolate on my brain.”

“You got brain on my dark chocolate.”

What are the effects if you eat it on the sofa?

What percentage is the minimum to produce a benefit? I like 70-80% cocoa.

Yep, a time-honored classic combo. A small piece of dark chocolate left to melt on the tongue, followed by a sip of whiskey - that can be special as well. The chocolate sort of bonds with the evaporating ethanol, which carries the "flavor" all through your sinuses. Wine doesn't quite have enough alcohol in it to produce that effect. It truly has to be tried, mere description does not do the experience justice.
