Chocolate US

Submitted by ub on

Food for the Soul... When it comes to our body, chocolate as fuel is the last thing that comes to mind, instead of carbs, fats, protein, and water but none of these are as good for you.

According to a new study of sports nutrition, a little dark chocolate may be exactly what you need before you embark on an ADVENTURE.

But a series of delays including drought, violence, disease and pollution caused the price of cocoa beans to rise by 40% without so far having an effect on global demand. Watch these Yioutube VidS.

The two top candidates for the Republican party nomination are at each others political throats, while the battle is just getting started and is still months away.

While both GOP front-runners continue to score victories, their platforms appear to be all but forgotten and the focus appears to be on personal attacks.

The Donald's outrageous comments, and reckless temperament could be volatile as commander in chief, along with his recent calls to diminish U.S. involvement with NATO have cast a negative aura over his head.

Whom We’d Most Like To Punch… Earning a whopping 54% of the vote, Donald Trump was the runaway winner for the individual most deserving of a pop in the kisser.

This according to WalletHub's 2016 Taxpayer Survey. They asked respondents "Who would you most like to punch in the face?" and provided them with the seven choices.
