How much do you like chocolate?

Hello Iriene,

I love Ferrero Rocher too. But I don't like Kit Kat! Totally agree with you, chocolate make me happy! If there is any chocolate in the fridge, I could not resist not to think of it! I must want it want it! So normally I will wallop the chocolate very fast and no stock up in the fridge!

Now my daughter get my gene. she likes chocolate when she was a baby. But do you know baby can not consume chocolate or it is just no good for them?

Eat more chocolates for your heart. Cut down on chocolates for your teeth. Avoid chocolates for your smooth beautiful face.

Oh , I did not know that baby cannot eat too much chocolate.
What is the reason to it? Is it too heaty and will have constipation?
I heard on Mix Fm everyday that dog cannot eat chocolate. Can die one!

Yeah, I know why dogs can't eat chocolate. Share with you here:

Chocolate is severely toxic to dogs because it contains theobromine. This is a stimulant that effects the nervous system and heart muscle, as well as increasing the frequency of urination.

Dogs can't metabolize theobromine as effectively as humans. This allows it to build up in their system until it reaches toxic levels of concentration. This may lead to a variety of health problems including death due to cardiac arrest.

The less the dog weighs the more you should be worried because the toxicity levels are higher.

About why babies can't eat too much chocolate, will check it out with my paediatrician.

Hello Shia,

I like Ferrero Rocher too. I like the hazel nut so much. Do you know that it is selling cheaper at Langkawi island, a duty free island in our country here. Once I go to Langkawi, I will sure buy the Ferrero Rocher in bulk! LOL.

I never come across Bounty Chocolate. I will keep this name in my mind so happen if I go travel to Australia or Singapore, I will look out for it. Actually that is a few brand of chocolate that I like it so much, but I just could not remember the name. But once I was in the supermarket at Isetan, I can spot it out esily. I find that Isetan sell more kinds of chocolates than others store.

Lately I have a new fond too. I am fancy in Patchi chocolate. It is much more expensive compare to Ferrero Rocher. And Patchi has all kinds of chocolate from dark chocolate to white chocolate, all kind of filling, nuts, waffle, coconut filling and many more.

Dear Shia and Vingyan,

Oh yes, you reminds me of Patchi.
I saw it selling in MPH Mid Valley!
They are absolutely tasty..especially those
with nuts..yummy. They have good business as
gifts for guests at the wedding dinner..

hi again, yes, you can get Patchi at Mph, Mid Valley. But I normally buy Patchi at Parkson KLCC.

I have another milk chocolate to share with you guys. It is daim!! The milk chocolates contain surprisingly crunchy almond caramel centre. It is in a bite size, so I can easily wallop a few piece in my mouth.

Hello Kitty,

I like chocolate with almond too. Chocolate with Hazel is my favorite too.

Maybe you can get the health benefits again here where you have think of any. Thanks in advance.

But for sure eating too much of chocolate will cause obesity.

Hello Sender,

Thanks for your response. I like milk chocolate too. But I just found that milk chocolate for certain brand is too sweet.

I like DAIM. Lately I am crazy for DAIM. My sister bought a box of Daim milk chocolate for me. The milk chocolates contain surprisingly crunchy almond caramel center. It is in a bite size, so I can easily wallop a few piece in my mouth.

Hi ultimateAsoka,

Thanks for your response here. Chocolate is good for our health, so don't worry, go ahead to buy more for yourself and your parents.

Share some of the benefits on why eating chocolate is good for you.

1. Chocolate Makes You Live Longer

Researchers found that those who ate modest amounts of chocolate up to three times a month lived almost a year longer than those who didn't eat any. They concluded that this was likely to be due to the fact that cocoa contains anti-oxidants called polyphenols, also found in red wine, which prevent the oxidation of harmful cholesterol. Anti-oxidants are also known to protect against cancer!

2. Chocolate Is Good For Stress

This is thought to be so because chocolate contains valeric acid, which is a relaxant and tranquilliser. Also, the sugar in chocolate may reduce stress - sugar has been shown to have a calming and pain-relieving effect on babies and animals because sweet tastes activate the opiate-like substances in our brain.

Will share more benefits in others comments, do check it out!
