Excellent news!!!

and a great sales pitch too :lol:

I don't fancy the 'small daily doses' bit (implying a possible overdose? :cry:

), but I guess anything for chocolate.

Everything is good in moderation I guess

Alternatively consider Oscar Wilde's stance on matters:
"Try everything in life once - except incest and morris dancing"

Incidentaly that had nothing to do with the topic, but Oscar Wilde's genius had to make it into the forums somewhere

I always knew that chocolate was good for you

Isn't it funny that Wilde also said: "Moderation is a fatal thing. Nothing succeeds like excess."

Which is perhaps more appropriate for us chocolate lovers. :wink:
