It could be Christmas time, Valentine’s Day, Easter, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Halloween or Thanksgiving. Fact is it could be party and feasting time, it’s candy time! Oh, boy! It’s candy time! But, mom says I can’t have candy ‘cause the sugar makes me hyper and it could also make me fat and diabetic. That’s not true, I found a place on the internet that says that sugar or glucose is good for me, and chocolate can fight cancer and heart disease. That’s what I like to hear!

Check this out! Sugar is also part of a family of foods called carbohydrates, and they are the body’s main source of energy. From this I learned that sugar is an important thing in my ability to get things done, things like my schoolwork and sports and other things that are fun to do.
This place that I found says that some guys at a place called Hershey did a study and found something called “conjugated lion oleic acid” that is also known as CLA in their milk chocolate, and this stuff fights cancer in animals. Well, I don’t know anything about that but if there are lions in it and they are fighting its just gotta be good!

Then there were these guys at a place called the Nestle Research Centre that found some stuff in dark chocolate that might lower something called cholesterol. That’s the stuff that I heard causes arteries to plug up and give us heart trouble and that can be bad news. It might even kill us and I ain’t ready to go yet.

Then there were these guys at University of California, Davis, and they found some things called phenolics in some chocolate. Gol-lee! I never knew all this stuff was in chocolate. That must be what makes it taste so good! Anyhow these phenolics stop or slow down the oxidation (that’s like rust, so its got to be bad) from forming in our arteries. So its got to be even better for us! Like I said, I ain’t ready to go yet, I’m havin’ too much fun, and eatin’ this candy is just too good to miss out on.

Well, now that I have told you how good for us candy and in particular chocolate is, I better tell you about this special site I found on the internet the other day. It’s the greatest!

It’s called http://www.atisketatasketgifts.com and it has all kinds of gift baskets and other containers that are just chuck full of good stuff like chocolate, ’n fudge, ‘n cookies, ‘n nuts, ‘n popcorn ‘n so many other goodies that it makes your mouth water just lookin’ at the pictures and readin’ about what’s in these baskets and things. They even have some baskets for babies and girls but they ain’t as good as the ones for guys and grown ups! You oughta look it up and check it out, It’s real good. You won’t be sorry you did!
