Chocolate... oh yeah...

Chocolate Compound Epicatechin Boosts Exercise Benefit

Eat some dark chocolate (not the nearly worthless milk chocolate) and take a long walk.


Oddly enough my husband was given a Hershey bar in honor of the birthday of a coworker's little girl.  I haven't touched a Hershey bar in years, so decided to try one little square.  It was dreadful! Truly dreadful.   Sickly sweet and a metallic aftertaste.  My husband agreed.

We threw out the balance of the bar.  I think that's the first time I've ever thrown out chocolate... but honestly it didn't even taste like chocolate to me. Ick!

I need to stop and pick up an organic dark chocolate bar tomorrow!  Now I know it will make me live longer or exercise better... or something.  But at the very least it will taste really really good. heh.

1 What's really good when you can find it is dark chocolate with a hint of chile pepper. Good stuff.

I can't stand milk chocolate anymore, either. Once you go dark, you can never go back, it seems...

2 LOL - Julie you are so right.  No going back indeed.  I'll look for that kind of chocolate. I'm sure it's out there in my local grocery store - the organic section carries some amazingly good chocolate.  I don't care if it's organic or not - I just like the way it tastes.
