Chocolate Better Than Kissing
Chocolate lovers will probably not be surprised to learn that a recent study found that the "buzz" that comes from melting chocolate in your mouth is greater than the buzz from kissing.
"There is no doubt that chocolate beats kissing hands down when it comes to providing a long-lasting body and brain buzz. A buzz that, in many cases, lasted four times as long as the most passionate kiss."
Letting the chocolate melt on the tongue appears to maximize the chocolate buzz effect.
