White,Dark, or Milk

Hell! Hands Down Milk!

Your completely right that white chocolate isn't real chocolate, as well as about dark chocolate elevating your mood. However, it is true that what is called "white chocolate" makes you depressed.

I've always know this since I was a kid but if you guys (RBZ) want documentation, the last place I read it was in Women's Health and as well as in the book "Eat This, Not That"

You'll have to forgive me if I don't trust a book on women's health. There are all kinda of stories and claims as to the apparent cause of depression induced by white chocolate, but I've never seen anyone back it up with any evidence (e.g. medical studies.)

A theory is good and all, and it could be very true for all I know, or really care, but a theory is useless without something to back it up.

Truth be told, they probably have some level of study, but odds are the affect of white chocolate is so insubstantial that it can't really be claimed to have any noticeable affect on human emotions. After all with the way the FDA in the United States jumps on these things, if it had any kind of real affect on the human pysche they would ban white chocolate. As it stands, the only regulation against white chocolate in the U.S. (and in most European countries) is actually defining what white chocolate really can be considered. It has to be a very specific recipe to be legally called white chocolate in many countries.

No it isn't that it was just in a health magazine. You guys didn't learn this stuff in middle school? It is just like common knowledge or at least triva! Just like white chocolate isn't real chocolate isn't a widely know fact, there are a lot of people who are aware of it. Same with it causing depression, I just don't feel like looking it up, or know where to start at. Checkout the book "Eat This, Not that" or look in up on WebMD - both those places will tell you.

And it is WOMENHEALTH, which is a more than a respectable magazine. Even if you are skeptical, what else can I say? That is just as reputable a source as any, so if you don't believe me what am I supposed to do? Find the clip from CNNheadlines?

Gotten tired of milk and white, are too sweet. Dark is the shit now.

Meh, even if true like I said it is so insubstantial. They fought for years to try and say wine was good for your heart. They still say it is, but it's so not that important that no one really cares. Same with white chocolate, if it had any real affect it would be banned. It's mostly just hyped up stuff that people need to not be so health conscious about. White chocolate isn't going to make you slit your wrists. *shrugs*

No but it will alter your mood, which is nice to know. Just like dark chocolate is like prozac, they still gave extra bars to medics in WWII to hand to soliders suffering from war fatigue.

honestly i'm a chocoholic so i could care less, on which type of chocolate it is, as long as it's chocolate ^_^ but dark chocolate has anti-oxidents so it's supposed to be healthier? my teacher's friend sells dark chocolate that has lots of different berries which have a ton of anti-oxidents, plus the anti-oxidents from the dark chocolate itself, makes it healthy. she said that if you eat that brand of chocolate instead of normal midnight snacks, you'll probably lose some weight. but the whole box is over $100 bucks..

Chocolate? Bleh... Not much of a sweets kinda man.

I prefer milk chocolate.

White crisp. Simply the best drug a student can have next to coffee

What the shit, where's strawberry?! RAGE

I like all chocolate. Mmm... chocolate.

I luvz teh white chocolate! It's solidified cum!

It really depends,
I like the white chocolate with like milk chocolate bits or fudge bits.
I like Milk Chocolate in like a crunch bar or some sort of specialty bar
And
I like Dark Chocolate plaine

So idk, its too hard to choose D:

wow... I'm one of the minority. @_@

I prefer dark chocolates. The strong taste is a plus for me ^^

Milk chocolates are good but I don't like white chocolates as much.

DARK LIKE THE NIGHT SKY.

That's if you like dark chocolate.

All this shit about white chocolate making you depressed - if it does, then you have to eat a boatload of the stuff. I've eaten white chocolate before with no sign of depression. As a matter of fact, it elevated my mood. Not because of any chemical though. I was happy because it tasted goooood.
