Why’d someone eat one square of dark chocolate after brekkies every day?

Question by Curious Georgina: Why’d someone eat one square of dark chocolate after brekkies every day?
I was reading a profile of a famous musician once and in his trivia it said that he ALWAYS ate one square (no more and no less) of dark chocolate a day, and he always ate it straight after breakfast. It was his little ritual.

Can anyone think of any beneficial reason why someone would eat that, at that particular time? I’ve been wracking my brains and can’t come up with anything

Answer by SethSpeaks
Dark chocolate helps prevent heart disease and may prevent some forms of cancer. But generally it is known for its heart healthy benefits.

Definitely!! These are just two recipes I found. You can also just up the amount of powdered sugar you use if you would like it sweeter. The dark Chocolate is a wonderful classy taste. It is for more mature tastes though. Although my kids love dark chocolate.

Chocolate: A Bittersweet Saga of Dark and Light

Chocolate: A Bittersweet Saga of Dark and Light

A delectable journey into the world of chocolate–from manufacturing to marketing, French boutiques to American multinationals–by the award-winning author of Olives.

Science, over recent years, has confirmed what chocolate lovers have always known: the stuff is actually good for you. It’s the Valentine’s Day drug of choice, has more antioxidants than red wine, and triggers the same brain responses as falling in love. Nothing, in the end, can stand up to chocolate as a basic fundament to human life.

In this scintillating narrative, acclaimed foodie Mort Rosenblum delves into the complex world of chocolate. From the mole poblano–chile-laced chicken with chocolate–of ancient Mexico to the contemporary French chocolatiers who produce the palets d’or–bite-sized, gold-flecked bricks of dark chocolate–to the vast empires of Hershey, Godiva, and Valrhona, Rosenblum follows the chocolate trail the world over. He visits cacao plantations, meets with growers, buyers, makers, and tasters, and investigates the dark side of the chocolate trade as well as the enduring appeal of its product.

Engaging, entertaining, and revealing, Chocolate: A Bittersweet Saga of Dark and Light is a fascinating foray into this “food of the gods.”
