Now before you attach racist connotations to this, let me set my slate clean. The reference here is to the ‘C’ of chemical condiments for our brain released by- Chocolate!
Its the typical craving, comfort-food, ‘friend in need’, aphrodisiac etc etc. Many of us try to justify the sinful clasp it has on our taste buds as in no way as vociferous an addiction as the other ‘highs’ of the ‘good life’. Coz this one doesn’t send your collective faculties for a toss. Or make a caricature of the world around you, so that you sit tight and watch the world carousel in spurts and crazy circles!
But if you are more forth-coming with your shortcomings, you can join me in saying, ‘But can you blame me?’ For example, it can play Prince Charming to so many tastes, its impossible to decide which marriage is best savoured. Be it with touches of cinnamon, coffee, cranberries, blue berries or just cherries, the adulterated cocktails, caramel and any other concoctions you fantasize....
You can the subdue the stubborn child, seduce the hitherto-unwilling Christina, cover-up the forgotten gift for the special occasion, calm the crowd of frustration a long day entails, combined with a flute of wine- and thanks to the recognition this magical commodity has gained in eyes worldwide- the ribbons and wrappings are complimentary!
Judge me not, when I have sinned. Indulging in this refined connoisseurship, that clouds of pure contentment brings!
