Do you like chocolate?

You don’t have to answer.

I know you do.

Liking chocolate isn’t subjective. Its an innate part of human nature. It’s a natural desire.

It’s a food group on its own.

Right below carbohydrate like rice in the food pyramid, where the nutritionists don’t bother showing you because you’re supposed to know it.

Unless you’re allergic to chocolate.

Seriously, that’s sad. I have a friend who’s allergic to chocolate but she says it isn’t sad because ‘you won’t desire something you’ve never tried before’. Oh no. Do try it!

As a kind suggestion, try carob if you have allergies.

You know, adults sometimes have this misconception that little girls prefer strawberry flavoured stuff to chocolate flavoured ones. My brother would get the chocolate biscuits while I would get the strawberry ones. As an (ungrateful) chocolate lover, I would “negotiate” (argue/fight/ask nicely in a pretentious way) with my brother so that he would exchange his chocolate biscuits for my strawberry flavoured ones.

Of course he didn’t agree, although I am very convincing (I once convinced him that our television bills comes with a record of all the TV programmes we’d watched. Yeah he’s darn gullible).

As I said, no one will reject chocolate. Because we are born to eat chocolate.

Okay.

Enough of that crap.

You want Chocolate ice- cream don’t you?

Especially when it’s low- fat, low- calorie, nutritious, healthy… and contribute to your 2-3 servings of fruit (which is, by the way, also near the bottom of the food pyramid) So it is doubly healthy.
