Go to a well stocked dollar store if you want to buy your name brand chocolates for less.

But there's proof it increases endorphins and decreases stress. And with the amount of stress we are all under, it is no wonder people are eating gobbling it up!

My two favorite chocolate companies are Hershey’s and Nestle’s. They both make the best chocolate products I know. Most of the rest are way too rich, way too creamy, way more expensive or just don’t taste all that good or any combination of those.

Actually, there is truth in what you said. I've seen some of the biggest increases in confectionery sales during recessions; relatively cheap pleasure. Was very big during the Carter years.
