Whoa! Interesting...
But I'd say it depends very much on who you kiss! ::sick:: I probably prefer chocolate to 99,9% of the world's population! ;D

I agree, but since the only one around who wants to kiss me is my dog ::sick::, I think I'll pick up some chocolate on the way home tonight. ;D

Dark chocolate is also said to be good for health (except for weight if eating too much of it). I can't remember if it was for blood pressure or something but something inside dark chocolate is health. 40 grams lasts 8 hours (yes that's 120 grams of chocolate per day). Milk or white chocolate doesn't work though.
Since eating chocolate and kissing are two different things to do then I think it's a bit far-fetched to compare the two, however I've never experienced a kiss so I can't tell (no I'm not kidding, that's one down-side of growing up alone and home-schooled, but then again, part of the reason I got pulled from school was due to trouble from a appearently sweet innocent girl that nevertheles was a troublemaker but the teachers only ever saw my payback and not her starting). I still think women are the most wonderful beings on the planet, or above the planet if she's also a pilot ::bow:: |:)\

Hmmm....seems somewhere that I recall seeing that Chocolate stimulated the same part of the brain as THC--the active ingredient in marijuana. On the other hand I also seem to recall reading somewhere that (at least in women) chocolate stimulated the same part of the brain as....err...you know......
Either way, I find a landing where I "grease it in" far better then ANY amount of chocolate ;D

If I remember right, dark chocolate has antioxidants in it like red wine and grape juice.
