Turtle candy and wine are the same poison, Dark chocalate in moderation has mood lifting brain health , heart health properties.

When wine is broken down by the body it becomes sugar and empty calories , this why you don't many diabetics in bars , 5 gallon buckets of insulin make dancing awkward even if your significant other is Hand truck.

Now bear with me here (I just lost half the readers )for my chocalate fix smash bars of trader Joe's dark chocalate ( it is made by Godiva in Belgium, good stuff,cheap) and (here goes some more readers) eat Dannon Oikos Mayan chocalate greek yogurt , it all natural , yogurt is good for you , its intensly creamy sometimes i freeze it as guilty pleasure , its chocalatey non highly over sweetened with cinnamon and other "sweet spice " notes to it , its exactly the flavors i imagined the mayans, aztec, and even the Roman empires rulers would have drank in there ceremonial chocalate drink ( yes I have a wild imagination and an adventurous palate ) its a great thing to eat as snack or a reward as desert , many times I will make ginger infused black bean & chicken burritos ( remember the adventourous, get ready) topped with pineapple salsa,advocado, and kim chee (south korean sauerkraut, fermeted cabbage with chillis and garlic) sweet, spicy, creamy,hot, pungent, herbaceous, and I use whole wheat low carb wraps( if you like them when I can get good olives I add them to ). Kim chee like other fermented vegetables is body and mind healthy, potentialy life extending , and then eat some mayan chocalate yogurt sprinkled with pieces of dark chocalate for desert to cleanse the palate . The sweet pineapple also has a nice digestive aid and gives you the sweetness from natural fruit sugars which is much better than refined sugar , a variation is to leave the pineapple salsa off and add a balsamic maple glaze.

If you cant tell I like sweet & savory, sweet & spicy ( I still have not mustered the courage to try a PB&J cheese burger , that crosses so many lines )

Yogurt, and Kim chee just as things like pickles , chow chow , gougjang ( fermented chili's & soybean paste it's the oriental version of Srirachia made for 1000's of years) are essential food groups , just use caution if you take an MAO inhibitor, consult you physician the adverse effects can be severe .

Give those a try my good little turtle , eat to live & live to eat , when I die may I drowned in a gray boat or a huge vegetable lasagn.
