I stress eat, too. What's wrong with (dark) chocolate?

Fourmilab? That's a famous site in my book.

Nothing wrong with chocolate, especially not dark chocolate. Has many benefits.

For me it was becoming a habital, almost ritual, item to eat.

I recall an article on habits, the author suggesting people broadly fall into two types when it came to controlling habits:

• maintainers - who have the ability to monitor and control habits
• abstainers - who cannot control habits but can abstain.

For many things I fall into the latter group.

So it's me not the chocolate that has a problem.

I have a similar issue with shortbread, but as it's rarely brought into the house - and I do need some vices - that remains.
