you'd have to eat a truck load of chocolate

And the down side is?

Shoot, I already eat TWO truckloads, to get enough theobromines to save buying asthma inhalers.

There really IS a reason fat people are jolly.

BTW, coming sometime next decade is my study, "Reasearchers Writing Pop-Culture Health Studies Are Likely to be Anal Retentive Spoilsports"

I'm eating this chocolate right now. My brother got it at Aldi's supermarket and sent it to me. It's very good, but they're little 2" bars. I'm on my fifth one.

Actually I munching on a homemade brownie.

Oh yum! Personally I do the chocolate chip cookie route. Make em, bake em and hide em. (We're talking survival here.)

My favorite breakfast is a cup of coffee and a chunk of dark chocolate. Heaven on earth.

"But the emotional eaters, people who eat chocolate to relieve boredom, stress or clinical depression, are looking for an opioid effect to improve their mood."

Then why aren't opioids presctibed for depression?

See post 18. I don't have that tagline anymore but it's still true. Chocolate will cure anything less than an audit.
