(that’s a Gershwin song… I love Gershwin!)
Okay, so I shoulda found this article yesterday - on Candy Day. But I just ran across it.
Prevention magazine: We Test It: Dark Chocolate
Why link to an article on chocolate from a Weight Loss blog? Well… first of all, there are health benefits to dark chocolate. And here’s one you might not know about. 
In fact, Italian researchers have found that women who eat chocolate regularly have higher levels of sexual desire than women who don’t indulge. There has been no research that I know of confirming a similar association with Johnny Depp.
Cool! I don’t like Johnny Depp anyway! But dark chocolate…that’s a good thing! And as Laura reminded us in her French Women post, savoring a small amount of a decadent treat is actually good for your weight loss regime! As we head into the food holidays, we need to remember this strategy.
Anyway. The article reviews several types of dark chocolate - they all sound yummy! I was pleased that my brand - Endangered Species chocolate - made the list. Though they taste-tested the mint variety instead of my beloved Tiger Bar. I think I may ask for the Small World Select Origin Dark Chocolate Squares to make an appearance in my Christmas stocking!
You mean there are actual women who DON’T regularly indulge in chocolate??? *gasp* I don’t know these women..
