Why Do I Love Chocolate: Let Me Count the Ways

1. A nice box of chocolate can provide my total daily intake of calories in one place. Isn't that handy?
2. Eating equal amounts of dark chocolate and white chocolate is a balanced diet.
3. When dieting, I eat a chocolate bar before each meal. It takes the edge off my appetite...and I eat less.
4. I would never consider giving up chocolate, because I am not a quitter.
5. Research suggests that garlic and chocolate are beneficial to your health. So, everything I eat contains either garlic or chocolate, but rarely both.
6. About the theory that chocolate slows down the aging process...it may not be true, but dare I take the chance?
7. Chocolate is cheaper than therapy. And I don't need an appointment.
8. A little too much chocolate is just about right.
9. To maintain a proper diet, I choose from the 5 basic food groups: milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white chocolate, chocolate cake, and chocolate pie.
10. Chocolate...it's a vegetable...Really!!! It comes from the cocoa bean. Beans are vegetables. 'Nuff said.
