The big news here is the potential for chocolate Viagra, or rather, Viagra-esque chocolate. Here’s the deal: Barry Callebaut, the current world-leader in the manufacture of cocoa and chocolate products, got some positive affirmation from the European Food Safety Authority on its claims that “cocoa flavanols, which are usually removed during conventional chocolate-making processes, help increase blood flow.”

Basically, this means that said cocoa flavanols have a similar, if more general, affect on the body as compared to the tiny blue pill we’ve come to know and love. Or at least know. People wouldn’t be looking for more natural alternatives to Viagra if it were perfect.
