What snack would you eat right now?
As such there is only one sensible snack – chocolate. It’s not too filling that it stops you sleeping, therefore it’s a wise choice.
It’s also a sensible mid morning and afternoon snack to keep you going as it doesn’t take long to eat if you’re busy.
An evening on the sofa watching tv is enhanced by a small chocolate infusion.
It’s very handy when you’re out for the day as it doesn’t add much weight to pockets and handbags. Nor does it take up much room in your flight bag, or suitcase.
The real bonus though is that you don’t have to cook it. You’ll never burn your mouth on it. It will never be too hot, too cold, and it’s easy to eat in bite sized chunks.
If you’re thirsty you can have hot chocolate with chocolate to dip in it, which will take care of any hunger pangs at the same time. Two birds with one stone, not one stone of chocolate though, to be clear.
It’s also not as bad on the teeth as you may think. This advice came straight from my dentist:
When given a bar of chocolate eat it all at once because sugar continues to attack the teeth for 30 minutes after you eat it. So it’s best not to nibble it over a long period of time.
So guess who bought their dentist a huge bar of chocolate for Christmas, about 800gsm I think, and put “Don’t forget, all at once” on the gift label.
I’m sure he will have appreciated it, otherwise I’m in deep sh…
