    Who is a chocoholic? MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! :D

    Found these very profound :rolleyes: quotes while googling:

    ................


    Forget love-- I'd rather fall in chocolate!!!

    ................

    CHOCOLATE
    Will make old women young and new
    Create new motions of the flesh.
    And cause them long for you know what,
    If they but taste of chocolate.

    ............................

    Don't wreck a sublime chocolate experience by feeling guilty.
    Chocolate isn't like premarital sex. It will not make you pregnant.
    And it always feels good.

    I'm not a chocolate lover but love the movie Chocolate with Juliette Binoche and Judi Denche, nominated for five Oscars!

    I'd give up chocolate - but I'm no quitter!


    There's nothing better than a good friend - except a good friend with chocolate!

    I don't dislike chocolate, Kandy, I just don't eat it frequently. I prefer chewy minty things, especially spearmint.

    I have a 300g bar of chocolate with mixed chopped nuts and crispies I bought for Christmas still unopened ... but the consume by date is October so there's plenty of time!

    I only like dark chocolate - 70%. Other chocolates are too sweet.

    I'm into Revels at the moment, not too keen on the toffee ones but I'll put up with them to get to the orangey ones [​IMG] ! Anything by Cadbury's gets my vote, the trip round the factory was heaven [​IMG] . Do you prefer chocolate from the fridge or left out? I'm hovering on that one, cold chocolate can be so hard but so yummy too.

    Wish to heck that I hadn't read this thread - I'd kept off the chocs for several days and now I'm back on to it!

    Lidl does a nice one that I am into of late. J.D.Gross Collection Sup�©rieur, 200g box, individually wrapped sticks. You can get them in dark chocolate, milk chocolate or mixed. I had been buying the mixed one but found the milk sorts rather on the sweet side, so now am only buying the dark one.

    Slap hands, K-G ... I'm avoiding it but maybe have a little less stress than you at the mo! :wink:

    Meant to say above the movie I mentioned above, the chocolate was made with chilli powder ... apparently an aphrodisiac so they said, but I have no personal knowledge of this! :rolleyes:

    Whilst expecting oldest I became very anaemic, so along with the iron tablets and liquid iron I had to swallow my midwife told me to eat lots of plain chocolate. I didn't need telling twice and now eldest will choose plain chocolate above all others!
