Actually, chocolate has been proven to be good for me. It's even in my hospital notes as such, so I eat a milk chocolate Yorkie bar a day - although I can't get them on prescription!! It relieves my epileptic seizures. Reduces the number I have, and the severity of those I still have.
Chocolate comes from fruit . Wine comes from fruit. Two of your 5 a day. Sorted.
My old gas cooker is being taken away next week to be replaced by an induction job. I feel like I'm losing an old friend. We've been together for over twenty years. I felt the same when my Nissan Sunny started first turn of the key when it hadn't been driven for six months. It went to the gallows with dignity. The old Vauxhall Viva before that didn't do too badly either. am I experiencing survivor's guilt?
I ate a Yorkie recently and it nearly gave me a seizure just from how bad it tasted Montezuma's dark peppermint chocolate or their giant dark buttons are my go-to at the moment.
My neighbour wanted to buy us something for helping him out recently. He took a lot of convincing that my wife really didn't drink alcohol and that I wasn't just winding him up. It was like I told him that she had three heads. It's quite funny when people buy her chocolates instead and then choose alcoholic chocolates though.
If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

I do prefer dark chocolate, but it's the unhealthy fats in the milk chocolate - and bacon - that do me good. Mind you, my cholesterol has risen, but the GP says on balance, it keeps me from clogging up A&E, as I have fewer falls. In the current climate, that's also good for everyone!!
At various places I've worked, the managers have brought in ice cream, bacon baps, tins of sweets, all sorts of cakes, rum for our coffee at Christmas, cans of soft drinks on hot days (not all at the same place or the same time) Stupid Nanny State would have them all accused of cruelty to staff who don't like or don't want one or more of the above. All I can say is that in every instance staff appreciated the gesture of the manager(s) even if they didn't partake.
I suppose it is the same for you up there in Blighty - chocolates reduced 25%+ So I killed two birds with one stone and treated myself to a box of Mon Cheri !!
Working in a Children’s Social Work team we had more than a few grim days … our manager knew that by sending out for cake on one of those days she was doing what she could to acknowledge that.
