Theobroma cacao: food of the gods...
Montezuma drank it before visiting his harem...
Casanova preferred its seductive powers to those of champagne...
Several recent studies showed that between 40 and 70 percent of women prefer eating chocolate to having sex... (?????! I thought you could do both! And I know they go good together!!!!)
Chocolate contains several soothing :=) substances: phenylethylamine which occurs naturally in the brain and reaches peak levels during orgasm; tryptophan, cuz it makes serotonin, causing sleepiness (the reason you fall asleep after Thanksgiving dinner), but which also can produce feelings of elation; and finally anandamide which binds to cannabinoid receptors in the brain (and which means "internal bliss"). So it may cause feelings of love, passion or lust; rapid mood change; a rise in blood pressure; increased heart rate; and feelings of well being. But is it an aphrodisiac? Naaahhhhh!
