The Rules of Chocolate


I found this list on Smile of the Day, and actually, I think I received it in a forward once . . .

So. These are the rules of chocolate:
  1. If you get melted chocolate all over your hands, you're eating it too slowly.
  2. Chocolate-covered raisins, cherries, orange slices, and strawberries all count as fruit, so eat as many as you want.
  3. The Problem: How to get 2 pounds of chocolate home from the store in a hot car. Solution: Eat it in the parking lot.
  4. Diet tip: Eat a chocolate bar before each meal. It will take the edge off your appetite and you will eat less.
  5. A nice box of chocolates can provide your total daily intake of calories in one place. Isn't that handy?
  6. Money talks. Chocolate sings.
  7. Chocolate has many preservatives. Preservatives make you look younger.
  8. Chocolate is a health food. Chocolate is derived from cacao beans. Bean = vegetable. Sugar is derived either from sugar beets or cane, both vegetables. And, of course, the milk/cream is dairy. So eat more chocolate to meet the dietary requirements for daily vegetable and dairy intake.
  9. Put "eat chocolate" at the top of your list of things to do today. That way, at least you will get one thing done.
Can you think of any other chocolate rules?

Cute. I like your chocolate photos. I'm going to go eat a Cadbury egg right. Vegetables -- check.
