I just received an email that shows pictures of chocolate. Im not one to have chocolate cravings, so I thought nothing of it and started watching the Word File. After looking at all those pictures of the most delicious chocolate, I started tasting it.
Needless to say, I searched through the house and I dont have any chocolate AT ALL !!!
Now I have this craving for just about anything chocolaty and all the stores are closed as its 1:30AM.
Are you the same? Can you look at pictures of chocolate and not have this crazy craving that says you just have to HAVE SOME?

Hello Bnx,
Haha, I guess I wont show you the lovely email I received showing those delicious pictures of chocolate then. I think it was done on purpose by a chocolate company since Valentine's day is right around the corner.

Hello Chocalate,
Oh yes, I sure can tell by your nickname!!
So, since you're really into chocolate, what would you do if you didnt have any in the house? I keep asking myself if theres anything else that can replace that delicious taste?

I used to get a "dessert tea" that was chocolate raspberry, and since I do not sweeten my tea, it had no calories. I also have found a "flavored water" that is unsweetened called Metro, and it has a Chocolate mint that is good.

Hi, MagicalBubbles. Not me. If I see any pictures of chocolate, I will crave it especially when I am hungry. I used to attend a Food And Nutrition class in high school. And, we had a book that had pictures of food in it. I was in 4th period at that time. Well, I was so hungry then. I was in the last period that we could eat lunch in. I would look at the pictures in the book just so that it could satisfy my hunger. I was really hungry then. So, I know what you mean when you say that you will crave chocolate when you look at it.

Hi,MagicalBubbles!
Well,count me as one.Hehe.I'm not a chocoholic and I'm not addicted to chocolates,too.Most of time when I eat chocolates is when I want to.If I don't want them,then no matter what a bar of tasty chocolate is in front of me,I won't eat it.Strange,huh?LOL!
Have a nice day!

I love chocolate too but if I see a picture of it yes I want it but I won't go crazy looking for a piece if there is none in the house. I can wait to get that piece of chocolate. Its so funny there is a commercial on TV where they show liquid chocolate and my 3 years old granddaughter stares at the screen saying "Grandma look at that, doesn't that look delicious." We are both chocolatics.

Sometimes she ask and sometimes she gets it and sometimes she does says "look how delicious."

Hello Lelin,
Ive seen such a commercial and you're right, I turn away when I know its on, but they sure know how to capture kids, dont they? Did she ask for you to get her some then?

If it is a piece of cake I have to have a piece of chocolate cake! L.O.L. But if it is a candy bar I can usually pass it up unless it is a Kit Kat bar.

I haven't had a Kit Kat in so long!! It is one of my favorite and maybe later when I head to the store I will buy some!!!

Hello Jahernandezrivas,
Thanks for your reply. I also like KitKat candy bars. Easy to eat while working at the computer. Now that you talked about it, I feel like eating one right now.

I just love to eat chocolates and I can resist them .It would be very hard to resist chocolates for me. SO I don't think that I will be able to look at chocolates and not eat them.

Hello Shail,
Sounds like you're part of the Chocolate Lovers Club then. I sure know what you mean. Chocolate makes kids out of us, so why fight it.

No, not really :-) Of course, if I just look at the pictures and don't have any chocolate I can't eat it either, but if I look at pictures of chocolate and have some, I will probably eat it. Unless I've managed to hide it so I can't find it, or I plan to use it for gifts.

Hello Torunn,
Thanks for replying.
I know what you mean about hiding chocolate, thats why I was stuck with none in the house. But....honestly...wouldnt you want to find it though, I know I sure would. You should have seen those pictures....too bad I cant post pictures as of yet !!

Hi Babysun, I admire your love for artwork even if its made of chocolate. The email I received what indeed pictures of chocolate artwork and although it was amazing all they could do with chocolate, the more I looked at it, the more I wanted to eat chocolate. You sure know how to manage your "hungers" ....thanks for sharing.

Hi Magicalbubbles,
Well when i was kid, i was sometimes thought, why do i take meals when i have my sweet chocolates, but i was not given by my parents..lol. But too much of anything is unhealthy.

Oh yes, I know that too much of anything is not good. But now they say chocolate IS good for us......in moderation of course but it takes the guilt away a little to know its actually good for us lol.
Thanks!
