There are very good reasons that most people
like chocolate.  First, the sweet taste is very
seductive and most kids start out on milk chocolate,
heavy emphasis on milk, which kids generally crave
anyway because they need the overdose of fats
and calcium for growth.  The dark, bitter chocolates
are generally an acquired taste as one gets older.
Secondly, there is an addictive chemical in chocolate
which also explains why one has a craving for it and
especially for the dark types as they have higher 
concentrations of this chemical.  Does anyone have 
any data on the addictive components in the makeup
of chocolate?
