Chocolate is THE food group. There is no other that compares.

I feel better when I consume chocolate. Good chocolate.

Oh! Oh! Now I really must post a recipe that uses Extreme Dark (79%) chocolate to make a drink that you just want to sip slowly hoping to make it last as long as possible :D. I'm gonna go do that right now!

That's the way I make chocolate milk all the time :) The dark stuff (74% and above) is fine daily in not-so-large amounts; a 1.6 ounce bar is totally allowed!

Actually chocolate is very healthy for you! Chocolate releases endorphins into your body which make you happy. When you eat chocolate candy the part that is bad for you is the fat and sugar. So if you dont mind eating something very bitter go for it lol.
If I am ever in a choclate mood but want to eat healthy I will heat up some milk and mix in dark chocolate coacoa powder, and add some splenda to sweeten or you could go with truvia.

As soon as I am able, I will drizzle some couverture chocolate over freshly crisped bacon. Sounds yummy.

Gravy...I love gravy! I would eat just about anything if it has gravy on it!

mmm and bacon. Bacon should be it's own food group. I love chocolate covered bacon!

Must be some pretty delicious gravy :) I'd think stuffing would be more of a food group than gravy.

Oh, yeah - you're not actually FROM Texas! :-) It's just a saying - everyone likes it so much that it 'should' be a food group ;)

Gravy? All by itself?

Yes, chocolate and gravy - but not together ;) In our house gravy is a food group for sure.
