Death by Chocolate - Guest Writer, Ms VP

Jamie is a chocolate lover.

She is someone who is so in love with chocolate that she basically lives on a chocolate diet. All sorts of chocolates appeal to her and she has them for all 3 meals of the day.

For the longest time that i know, Jamie and her fellow chocolate lover sista, Jacqueline have always favoured white chocolate over the others. They think that white chocolate taste and look purer and that somehow gives them a sense of superiority when they eats them.

However, recently, jamie's taste has changed. She has begun to take a liking for dark chocolate thinking that it is more beneficial for her.

There have been various reports stating the health benefits of dark chocolates including the fact that chocolate releases endorphin that will lift up your mood. Hence, whenever jamie is alone and depressed, she will turn to dark chocolate in the hope that it will make her happier.

However, not only did the dark chocolate not lift her mood, they caused her to become a postmenopausal bitch and has caused several unwanted side effects like diarrhea and vomiting.

All these while, jamie refused to believe that dark chocolate is bad for her health and continued to search for the best dark chocolate from the 2 famous chocolate factory in town, tanchoc and darkstage. Jamie tried and tried and eventually found a dark chocolate at tanchoc. She was exhilarated when she saw this particular dark choc with the name bombayessence.

Jamie paid a high price for bombayessence and just when she was looking forward with anticipation for all the benefits that bombayessence could give her, she was once again disappointed. Bombayessence not only taste like curry turned sour, it smells like cheese that has turned bad.

jamie was furious after trying bombayessence and she promised herself that she will stay off dark chocolate forever after this experience. I was glad for jamie when i heard that as i know dark chocolate has done her more harm than any others.

However, not long after promising to stay off, jamie's delusional illness caused by her previous encounters with dark chocolate came back to haunt her. She behaves like she is under a spell or a curse and kept singing praises of dark chocolate. Not long after, she is out on an endless hunt for the perfect dark chocolate again...

Will Jamie ever find the dark chocolate that will make her feel like heaven when she tastes it? Or will Jamie turn back to white chocolate, feeling superior all over again? Or will Jamie try milk chocolate for once? Or perhaps Jamie will change her diet habit all together and go back to the down to earth staple food of rice?

Whatever is the case, here’s hoping that Jamie will find something that will satisfy her taste bud like never before.
