Chocolate is one of the most popular and
yummiest types of foods that will likely stay at the top of most peoples
favorite food lists. Chocolate is something most of us have grown up
enjoying, but very few of us have taken the time to learn the many facts
that are associated with Chocolate. There are actually hundreds of facts
that are associated with Chocolate and I have created a list of the ones
that I find most interesting.

1. It is a known fact that chocolate has
caffeine in it. But did you know that you would have to eat more then a
dozen chocolate bars to get the same amount of caffeine from a cup of
coffee? There are about 5 to 10 mg’s of caffeine in one ounce of bitter
chocolate, 5 mgs in milk chocolate, and 10mgs in a six-ounce cup of
cocoa.

2. Chocolate is actually a valuable energy source. A single
chocolate chip can provide enough energy for an adult human to walk 150
ft.

3. Chocolate has great health benefits. It
helps with depression, high blood pressure, Tumors and Pre-menstrual
syndromes.

4. Chocolate does not cause or aggravate acne, this is a
myth.

5. One ounce of baking chocolate or cocoa
contains 10% of the daily recommended intake of iron.

6. Chocolate
can be deadly for dogs. Chocolate contains an ingredient called
“Theobromine” which can be toxic to a dogs central nervous system and
cardiac muscles.

7. People spend more than $7 billion dollars
a year on chocolate.

8. The per capita consumption of chocolate
indicates that each person consumes 12 pounds of chocolate each
year.

9. Milk Chocolate is the most preferred type
of chocolate, however dark chocolate is especially popular among
men.

10. In Alfred Hitchcock’s movie “Psycho” chocolate syrup was
used to indicate blood in the famous shower scene.

My name is Nick Vujicicand I was born without limbs and doctors have no medical explanation for this birth ‘defect’. As you can imagine, I was faced with many challenges and obstacles.
Their firstborn son had been born without limbs! There were no warnings or time to prepare themselves for it… The doctors were shocked and had no answers at all! There is still no medical reason why this had happened and Nick now has a Brother and Sister who were born just like any other baby.

I know that there is no such thing as luck, chance or coincidence that these ‘bad’ things happen in our life.
I had complete peace knowing that God won’t let anything happen to us in our life unless God has a good purpose for it all
