Did you know

According to a nationwide survey done by the Chocolate Manufacturers
Association: Chocolate is America's favorite flavor. A recent survey revealed
that 52 percent of U.S. adults said they like chocolate best. The second
favorite flavor was a tie (at 12 percent each) between berry flavors and
vanilla.

U.S. chocolate manufacturers currently use 40 percent of the almonds produced in
the United States and 25 percent of domestic peanuts.

U.S. chocolate manufacturers use about 3.5 million pounds of whole milk every
day to make chocolate.

Sixty-five percent of American chocolate eaters prefer milk chocolate.

The melting point of cocoa butter is just below the human body temperature --
which is why it literally melts in your mouth.

Approximately 60% of Americans said they gave boxed chocolates as a winter
holiday gift.

Most Americans (63%) can't resist buying a chocolate treat for themselves when
buying chocolates for someone else.

Half of Americans (51%) choose what chocolate they eat by the shape of the
piece.

What kind of chocolate are you?




You Are White Chocolate



You are White Chocolate

You are sweet, caring, and truly very innocent.

Whether your naive ways are a bit of act or not, people like to take care of you.

You are a quiet flirt, and your power is often underestimated!
