THE RULES OF CHOCOLATE



                          ~ If you've got melted chocolate all over your hands, you're
                             eating it too slowly.
 

                          ~ Chocolate covered raisins, cherries, orange slices & strawberries
                             all count as fruit, so eat as many as you want.
 

                          ~ The problem: How to get 2 pounds of chocolate home from the store
                              in hot car. The solution: Eat it in the parking lot.
 

                          ~ Diet tip: Eat a chocolate bar before each meal. It'll take the
                             edge off your appetite and you'll eat less.
 

                          ~ A nice box of chocolates can provide your total daily intake of
                             calories in one place. Isn't that handy?
 

                          ~ If you can't eat all your chocolate, it will keep in the freezer.
 

                          ~ But if you can't eat all your chocolate, what's wrong with you?
 

                          ~ If calories are an issue, store your chocolate on top of the
                             fridge. Calories are afraid of heights, and they will jump out of
                             the chocolate to protect themselves.
 

                          ~ If I eat equal amounts of dark chocolate and white chocolate, is
                             that a balanced diet? Don't they actually counteract each other?
 

                          ~ Money talks. Chocolate sings.
 

                          ~ Chocolate has many preservatives. Preservatives make you look
                              younger.
 

                          ~ Q.  Why is there no such organization as Chocoholics Anonymous?
                             A.  Because no one wants to quit.
 

                          ~ If not for chocolate, there would be no need for control top
                             pantyhose. An entire garment industry would be devastated.
 

                          ~ Put "eat chocolate" at the top of your list of things to do
                             today. That way, at least you'll get one thing done.
