Research Offers a Sweet Surprise: Chocolate Is Good for You

And just in time for Valentine's Day, too. We suggest you commit this article, which appeared first in the Los Angeles Times, to memory and take it with you the next time you either go to the candy story or have someone near and dear to you think he/she is doing you a favor by withholding chocolate. Not that the concept of chocolate as either an aphrodisiac or a source of healthful eating is all that new. The only grim news, for me, in this whole story is that my favorite form of chocolate - milk chocolate - is probably the least nutritious of all the versions. Sigh.
