    I made my own hot chocolate once. I flew too close to the sun.

    I kept adding chocolate (and cocoa powder) and sugar again and again. I wanted to see how much would be too much. Problem was I was tasting it after each iteration. By the time I realized my own taste perception was getting numbed, I had gone way , way too far. Nobody else could even drink it. Even I could only drink half a cup and I was buzzing.

    Moral of the story: cleanse your palate kids. It could save your life.

      I’ve done that lol. It was still awesome, but it was intense. I think we all forget that chocolate is a stimulant until we do something silly like that. I had the jitters for the entire day.
