Like many people the world over, my husband loves chocolate. He finds it delicious and comforting. And it's quite diverse, being available in so many different forms. You can bake it into a cake or cookie, suck on it, chew it or drink it. Chocolate candy melts on your fingers, offering the extra fun of licking it off. The only down side is that some people become addicted and eat too much of it. (Personally I find it cloying and it usually gives me a stomach ache.)
One positive use for chocolate has gone overlooked: If they gave all the soldiers candy bars instead of guns, wars would turn out much better. Deaths would be greatly reduced, what with all the soldiers busy licking their fingers instead of shooting strangers in the head. And forget PTSD -- returning vets would suffer from diabetes, which is at least treatable.
I suppose this is why Pete Hegseth is Secretary of Defense and not me.
