When it comes to chocolate, go dark - Chew On This - MSNBC.com

If you’re going to indulge on Feb. 14 or any other day, go for the purest dark chocolate you can find. That’s the kind loaded with flavonoids — antioxidant chemicals that help prevent cell damage, reduce clot formation and improve blood sugar levels. The cacao plant, which is what chocolate is made from, contains the same antioxidants — including catechins and phenols — found in red wine, apples, onions and grapes.

This is a great idea. You’re sending two messages at once. I Love You, and I Want to Keep You Around Longer. Perfect.
