Chocolate Beetle
About 200kgs of melted chocolate was spread over the VW Beetle after it was first wrapped in cling film. Seven people worked overnight to make sure the chocolate car was ready to go on display on the morning of Valentine’s Day. According to China News Network, the car attracted many viewers and lovers to the dealer in Qingdao city.
Will’s Ten Rules to Remember when Eating Chocolate
- Put ‘eat chocolate’ at the top of your list of things to do today. That way, at least you’ll get one thing done.
- If you’ve got melted chocolate all over your hands, you’re eating it too slowly.
- Chocolate covered raisins, cherries, orange slices and strawberries all count as fruit, so eat as many as you want.
- The problem: How to get two pounds of chocolate home from the store in a 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.
- 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. Beautifully.
- Chocolate has many preservatives. Preservatives make you look younger. Therefore, you need to eat more chocolate.
- A nice box of chocolates can provide your total daily intake of calories in one place. Now, isn’t that handy?
Will and Guy Commission Research into Chocolate
Eating chocolate is more stimulating to the heart and the head than kissing, according to new research conducted in 2007.
The study found that at the point the chocolate melted in the mouth, all regions of the brain received a boost far more intense and longer lasting than the mental excitement from kissing.
Chocolate also set the heart pounding, with heart rates for some of the 12 volunteers rising from a resting rate of about 60 beats per minute to as high as 140.
Dr David Lewis, a psychologist formerly of the University of Sussex who led the study, said, ‘These results really surprised and intrigued us.’
Dr Lewis, who now runs a private research company called The Mind Lab, added, ‘There is no doubt that chocolate beats kissing hands down when it comes to providing a long-lasting body and brain buzz.’
Worth remembering on St Valentine’s Day when a box of chocolates for a loved one could be as good as several kisses!
