Almost every day...

The average American consumes approximately 11.7 pounds of chocolate each year!

I remember reading war stories, that soldiers always took along chocolate for longer missions - it kept them going when food supply didn't last....

well tefila, dreaming is good enough.. you know the say when s/one wants to do a good mitvah but loses the chance to do it for whatever reason, s/he still gets schar bec. s/he had a good machsovo...

so you get schar for dreaming about it, u dont actually have to eat it.

CHOCOLATE CRAVINGS ARE REAL -- Researchers in Arizona have confirmed what "chocoholics" have always known, episodes of chocolate craving are real. The researchers also say the cravings are probably based on a combination of chocolate's nutrients and chemical composition. A report in the October issue of the Journal of the American Dietetic Association says chocolate can be a sort of "self-medication" for some. Certain compounds found in the treat, called biogenic amines, also are produced in the brain and have been linked to regulation of mood. From a nutrition standpoint, chocolate may ease the effects of magnesium deficiency, a condition that some studies have linked to premenstrual syndrome. Researchers Dr. Douglas Taren and Kristen Bruinsma of the University of Arizona in Tucson say chocolate cravings appear to exist in about 40 percent of women and 15 percent of men.
