For the hell of it, I decided to type “chocolate addiction” into google to see what kind of results I would get. Very interesting stuff. Did you know that chocolate apparently contains a small amount of cannabis? Of course, you would have to consume a rather large amount of chocolate in order to get stoned. Apparently, some guy decided to use this argument as his defense in court when his urine test came back positive for marijuana. There’s also some lady in Birmingham, England who survives on pretty much nothing but chocolate. That must get old. Switzerland apparently has the highest consumption of chocolate, 22 pounds of chocolate per person per year, twice that of the U.S. I also found this cute site called Chocolate and Zucchini that had a whole bunch of really cool recipes for chocolate deserts. Studies have found that dark chocolate is very good for the heart.

Ok, enough about chocolate. I’m getting another craving.
