Endorphin release is a good way to counter the stresses of modern capitalism. Spice food also works well :)

I personally like chocolate. Yes, it helps boost up the mind and mood :). Even better - have you tried cocoa beans yet? It's like veeery dark chocolate in shells similar to big coffee seeds.

Don't forget supper too. Nothing like ending the day with a Cadbury's Caramel. hehe

I know, you can always tell that a country loves it chocolate when they start gigantifying it...good time to be a dentist in Britain perhaps! :)

Guys..........as usual there are different types of chocolate......the international standard is min 30% cocao solids for milk chocolate and 70% dark chocolate....anything else cannot be classed as such...least thats what the French and Belgians say!

Effectvely those items bought in UK are "candy"...full of sugar/fats as a cheap substitute....bad for you......!

I'm addicted to chocolate. Absolutely love the stuff. I eat 2 small bars a day on average (maybe a tad more, actually).

Favourites are Snickers, Dairy Milk, Caramel.

The Polish do Mleczki something-or-other which is rather nice too.

I think that the most chocolate obsessed nation would be the Mexicans. I heard that they even eat chicken in chocolate!! :)

Ptasie Mleczko??

Could you?

I really like polish one but it is little hassle to buy nice fresh, white, chese here( only in Polish shops) I could probbaly try to make English one.

English cheese cake doesn't always have cheese in it

So why word "cheese" in the name?

Wikipedia has various cheesecakes. Might sound daft but my mum never put cheese in cheesecake.
