RELEASE: SUNDAY, JANUARY 1, 2012Editor's Note: Hundreds of Ann Landers' loyal readers have requested that newspapers continue to publish her columns. These letters originally appeared in 1999. Dear Ann Landers: You once confessed in print that you are an incurable chocoholic. Since I am, too, I thought you might enjoy this essay. Someone sent it to me by e-mail. I don't know who wrote it. If you think it's funny, print it. — A Boston Babe Dear Babe: I do indeed. Here it is: "All About Chocolate" If you get melted chocolate all over your hands, you're eating it too slowly. Chocolate-covered raisins, cherries, orange slices and strawberries all count as fruit, so eat as many as you want. Eat a chocolate bar before each meal. It will take the edge off your appetite, and you will eat less. If you can't eat all your chocolate, it will keep in the freezer. But if you can't eat all your chocolate, it may be a sign of a deeper problem. Store your chocolate on top of the refrigerator. Calories are afraid of heights and will jump out of the chocolate to protect themselves. Equal amounts of dark chocolate and white chocolate make a balanced diet. The preservatives in chocolate will make you look younger. If not for chocolate, there would be no need for control-top pantyhose, and an entire garment industry would be out of business. A nice box of chocolate provides your total daily intake of calories in one place.
Put "eat chocolate" at the top of your list of things to do today. That way, at least you will get one thing done. Question: Why is there no such organization as Chocoholics Anonymous? Answer: Because no one wants to quit. Problem: How do you get 2 pounds of chocolate home from the store in a hot car? Solution: Eat it in the parking lot. Feeling pressured to have sex? How informed are you? Write for Ann Landers' booklet "Sex and the Teenager."
