Default Does chocolate have magical powers???

I've heard that chocolate has magical powers.

Is that true or just an urban legend???

That would be a dream though aged chocolate activating
magical power is the gimmick in the Japanese anime "Trouble
Chocolate" which is lot of parody(of other anime) wrapped
around a Pygmalion story...
Of course I hoped the story would have more to do with
chocolate. But I watched it through the end and didn't
fell I had wasted my time too much even though at that point
my knowlege of anime was too limited to fully appreciate the
parodic elements. I think the total is 16 or 17 episodes
on 4 dvds.

No good powers, only bad. Therefore you must get all chocolate out of
your house immediately! I'll do you a favor -- send all of your
chocolate to me.

Well actually chocolate really does make you feel good. It releases
some kind of hormone in your system that makes you feel good. I think
its called endorphins.

i don't think the chocolate have magical power.the only thing that influence the eater leading to release of hormones and pheromones .hormone can influence eater only but pheromones can influence the another person.hence no magic can be their.
