Americans consume more chocolate per capita than any other nation on earth.

FACT or CRAP ?

CRAP

Denmark has the highest per capita consumption of chocolate in the world at 29.5 pounds each year, compared to 11 pounds consumed per person yearly in the United States. A little too much chocolate is just about right.

Perhaps not a coincidence that yesterday Denmark was named the happiest country.

FACT

In the 1890's the royal physician, Sir Joshua Reynolds, prescribed marijuana for Queen Victoria of England as a treatment for her menstrual cramps. That put the " high " in Her Highness! <

The CIA devised a plot to cover Fidel Castro's shoelaces with hair remover. The plan was for Fidel to tie his shoes, touch his beard, which would fall out, and with the loss of his beard, he would lose his popularity.
