“CHOCOLATE IS HEALTH FOOD FOR THE SOUL”
“CHOCOLATES”! A word that has its own charm. When we think or hear this word chocolate, we get a clear picture of a dark brown colour sweet substance which is so elegant and creates a smile on the face of all chocolate lovers.
Today, we have so many Indian as well as international brands of chocolate.’Dairy Milk’ we all know about this chocolate, it itself has so many varieties it it. For example, Dairy Milk Silk, Dairy Milk Crackle, Dairy Milk Fruit &Nut, etc . Not only Dairy Milk we have crunchy-munchy Munch, energy givng Perk, Kit Kat, 5 Star, Milky Bar and lots more. These are just Indian chocolates, when we come to international chocolates, Bournvile comes to our mind when we think of dark chocolates. Hershey’s chocolates, Ferrero Rocher, Toblerone are few more additions, and the list goes on.
The beauty of a chocolate is such that it is loved by people of all age groups from infants to elderly people. Today’s youngsters want chocolate in for nearly 70%of the eatables they eat. Also, we have chocolate creamy biscuits, choco chips, chocolate cakes & pastries. Because of chocolate we have NUTELLA and yes chocolate powder in milk too. Isn’t it just amazing? What drives us so crazy over the whole idea of chocolate?
The melting sensation, when we think of chocolates is what attracts us towards itself. They are just a perfect gift for any occasion. Be it for anybody’s birthday, for that “someone special”, for festivals like Rakshabandhan, Diwali. They are auspicious even for a small gathering or a celebration. And the advertisement on the television of eating chocolates on the first day of the month is like an icing on the cake. It is something which brings smile to everybody’s face. Their elegance is just enough!
According to various Research activities, there are many advantages of eating chocolates. Chocolate decreases stroke risk, A 2011 Swedish study found that women who ate more than 45 grams of chocolate a week had a than women who treated themselves to fewer than 9 grams of the sweet stuff. It also boost your heart health. Apart from these it can help you quite cough ,boosts your mood, improves blood flow & vision and makes you smarter. They act as a stress buster. I personally prefer eating chocolates during exam time or when I am stressed. It is something which an ointment is to an injury.
Sometimes, there are feelings and emotions associated with chocolates. We see a particular chocolate, and a flashback of memories is played at the back of our mind just because it was given to us by “someone special” on our very first date. Even emotions of a little child are delivered when he goes to the market with his mother and wants that particular chocolate to munch and on being refused immediately starts crying.
“CHOCOLATE”, even reminds me of a movie I had watched ‘The Chocolate Factory’.
So, friends enjoy munching your favourite chocolate.It gives immense pleasure and happiness.
