The key is moderation (about 1 ounce per day) and choosing chocolates with at least 60% cacao content.

Next week, an article about how dark chocolate will give you brain hemorrhoids. And drinking a gallon of tequila will boost your immune system. Two weeks later we'll get an "Oops, we were wrong. Sorry about that."— verve- I hear Nutter going to create a chocolate tax next!— Borkey
