Quotes For People Who Know Chocolate Fixes Everything

Updated August 16, 2021

Look, I'm not saying I'm addicted to chocolate or anything. But I will say that whenever I watch that scene in Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory where Augustus Gloop tumbles into the chocolate river, I understand.

I understand completely.

Everyone in my life knows that chocolate has a very special place in my heart.

Last year for my birthday, my sister gave me an entire gift bag filled with different kinds of chocolate bars, ranging from a 72 percent dark cocoa (my personal favorite), to a barely-chocolate-but-definitely-still-counts bar of white.

And let's just say those delicious bars didn't last very long past my birthday.

I know I'm an adult, and I should probably be obsessed with more mature foods, like avocado or whatever else people my age are supposed to fantasize about.

But I can't do it. I'm too loyal to the good stuff.

Because honestly, there's just something so comforting about chocolate.

It reminds me of those post trick-or-treating meetings my siblings and I would have in the living room, where we would spend hours trading our candy bars until we all ended up with a pillow case sufficiently filled with our own favorite treats.

Chocolate also reminds me of my dad's specialty milkshakes, and my mom's favorite Christmas desserts. It's only ever brought me good, wholesome memories.

So naturally, I like to turn to chocolate when I get feeling a certain kind of way.

If I ever find myself having a bit of a blue day, or maybe something hasn't gone the way I hoped it would and I'm having a hard time dealing with that, I know one sure-fire way to cheer myself up.

Whether it be chocolate cake, chocolate brownies, or simply just a few squares of my favorite candy bar, I know my frownie will soon be all but forgotten.
