I'm a woman and...this isn't news to me. Idiots (of both sexes) far outnumber geniuses. As for chocolate - this substance is an addictive substace; addicts are incapable of making balanced, logical decisions with regard to their vice and so cannot be considered mentally sound. Chocolate is also for practical purposes, a poison: it's extraordinarily fattening: bar of dairy milk (standard size) contains 255kcal. Secondly, chocolate contains a high concentration of polyphenolic compounds, and as I'm sure everyone (who is not one of the aforementioned idiots) is aware, many of these inhibit iron absorption significantly. This can lead to malnutrion in the form of iron deficiency, which in turn is likely to cause aneamia. So the addict has made themselves sick...helpful. * On a slightly more personal note, perhaps you should reduce your alcohol consumption. One shot of whiskey contains polyphenolic compounds (less than chocolate and tea, more than coffee) and provides about 128kcal; therefore if you drink 2 shots (or 100ml) you will have consumed a similiar number of calories as provided by the chocolate bar...

So far he's revealed several passwords and not a bar of chocolate in sight.... funny that :) WoE Juliet,

Juliet Coxeman,
