In my case, a lack of chocolate causes depression, I eat chocolate and ice cream a couple times a day and I'm not fat, actually very few people in my city are fat... chocolate and ice cream are very healthy, believe me It's just your brains that causes obesity.

Yeah we better outlaw this because it can harm us. We cant have the ability to make the choice to take the risk and eat it. Having depression could cause our medical bills to go up having to pay for maybe a federal employee having to get treatment for depression.

I mean that is the logic with anything liberals dont agree with.

Personal choice and personal responsibility is out the window. Liberals make our choices for us and tell us what we can and cant do

Or they can just tax it and control is that way thats a liberal mo

Poppycock! Dark chocolate will cause your wife or gf to not only be faaaar from depressed but more than likely grab you and....

It's the crap chocolate that probably causes depression. Ya gotta get the good stuff.

Now that I think about it, Poppycock is a delicious snack food that has not been proven to cause depression.

So you support marijuana legalization, correct? Or is that to much of a Republican issue for you?

The study doesn't seem to differentiate between cause and effect.

It could be that folks who tended to be more depressed ate more chocolate.

It could be a byproduct, not a cause.

Typical for what passes for reporting in the media today.
