I don’t know if chocolate is good for you. I do know that chocolate feels good to me. I don’t know if this belief would stand up to scientific or medical examination, but I believe it all the same.
Even on my worst day, and they never get that bad, a good dose of chocolate makes me feel better. Taking a family-sized block out of the fridge and feeling it, all cool and solid in my hands, makes me feel a bit better. Peeling back the paper and then the tin-foil certainly improved my mood. By the time I break off a row (or two) I am well into having a much better day already. The actual eating, the taste and the chemical and biological reactions are all helpful too, of course. But by that point there are just icing on the proverbial cake.
And, I guess, it’s just possible that chocolate may harm my physical well-being. But even if it does, and that’s still and “if” as far as I am concerned, hurts my physical health, it still does wonders for my mental health.
Chocolate might not be good for you. Chocolate is definitely good for me.
Chocolate is good for you.
