Chocolate is one of those things that are absolute heaven to the senses. It’s not only the taste but the smell and the feeling that it provokes. It has been shown in scientific studies to temporarily alleviate depression because of the endorphins your brain makes when you just have the smell…not even the taste. Dark chocolate is better for you than milk, but all of it’s amazing. Then there are the truffles in South Carolina…yum! Just remember that everything is good in small quantities. If you eat it all the time then it isn’t so special. What is your favorite chocolate? Tell us in the comments below! Here is a bonus South Carolina Chocolate shop.
