(I have enough other vices to compensate). Having said, this, I can be somewhat discriminating (OK, picky) about the chocolate I choose in the rare instance I'm purchasing chocolate.

M&M's are banned in Europe/EU because of colouring/dies in the chocolate. The red/orange/blue are said to cause brain cancer or other issues. I can't remember exactly why.<BR/>So if we want M&M's over there, we buy Smarties, which is even more delicious than M&M's.<BR/>Do you have any info on this Dr.A about colouring stuff in M&M's.<BR/>Also isn't it the cacao content in the chocolate, so if one can find 70% chocolate that should be the chocolate to eat?<BR/>I also heard that of the 'non fancy' chocolates that Cadbury's has the highest chocolate content.<BR/><BR/>I love my chocolates too, but I'm quite picky which ones I want to eat. I tend to go for European rather than US chocolates as they tend to have more taste.<BR/><BR/>Chocolate covered blueberries and cherries are the best though!Visionary & Medium Extraordinairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05986955139070623894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29955732.post-41613119072095068402007-03-25T01:00:00.000-04:002007-03-25T01:00:00.000-04:00If only it were true, chocolate saving life that i...If only it were true, chocolate saving life that is. Keep your M&Ms but dark chocolate I'm addicted to. You could start you own study, Dr A, not double blind though, everyone on the good stuff. And maybe 5 years, not a lousy six weeks.

We had 3 big candy dishes full of them constantly. I love them! We would buy those super size family bags of them..Another favorite of mine were malted milk balls. But, my all time favorite is chocolate covered marshmellows. hmmmm. I wish I had some and I wish I could eat them if I did have them....I swear I think I could eat a whole pound of them!<BR/><BR/>What I want to know is what does a "placebo" chocolate taste like, and what is it?
