Chocolate Flavor Anonymous

Wait a minute now! Iā€™m browsing the Net today, and itā€™s so funny how things usually happen for me, but this angsty headline catches me in the hair follicle of a click, almost turning my keyboard upside down.


Whadt!?! Chocolate Associated with Depression?

No way! Iā€™ve been hooked on chocolate since I was two. And I know I had nothing to be depressed about at two. Well, maybe I did, but I wouldnā€™t have known about it. And still, after all these years eating chocolate like a straight line is long, Iā€™m still not depressed. At least I donā€™t think I feel depressed. Now, it might be if hooked up to a good depression monitor that baby might turn out all of earthā€™s lights, but even that donā€™t prove nothing to me.

Iā€™m sorry, or rather no, Iā€™m not sorry. Those studies are just plain wrong. Sure Iā€™ve gotten depressed here and there. Like who hasnā€™t, or doesnā€™t? But for as much chocolate as Iā€™ve eaten, by the sounds of chocolate associating with depression, I should be the walking, mumbling manual of depression.

Of course I had to do more digging after reading this, which let me jump in here and add, it made me quite depressedā€¦until I came upon more favorable research to my liking. There is this other thing ā€˜supposedlyā€™ associated with eating chocolate that surprised me a lot. Quite a whole lot. Like WHEWā€¦ wiped sweat right off my brow.

But seriously, check out some of whatā€™s been recently written about chocolate. I had no idea. Until I went back a little further checking. Itā€™s been reported that research on chocolate is conflicting. HERE, HERE, and HERE. Otherwise I was about to say, ā€œmaybe I should go chocolate flavor anonymous.ā€
