Title: Guys Is it possible to NOT eat enough chocolate ?
Post by: tp4tissue on Fri, 03 March 2017, 01:13:19: So, Tp4 has recently been eating lots and lots of chocolate.. recently entered a position where Tp4 gets lots of free chocolate..

And so for about 2 weeks, 've been eating chocolate all day..

And...... early yesterday, decided to cut off of the stuff, fearing EPIC FATNESS...

All of yesterday afternoon, evening, and now early morning, Tp4 has had a continuous mild headache.

Maybe caffeine withdrawal ?

More particular towards milk chocolate because of the typically higher sweetness..

I like the more complex flavor of dark chocolate.. but in the end.. I felt that I enjoyed the sugar rush more than the taste.

Keep in mind.. this is Unlimited chocolate, if one was paying for chocolate.. it'd definitely make more sense to get the complex flavored ones so you don't get bored..

So if we estimate TP to be a 70Kg Human (we will ignore other speculation here), then he might hit the LD50 if he ate ~33-50Kg of milk chocolate or as "little" as ~5Kg of dark chocolate... I think we can assume he will succumb to diabetes before he dies of theobromine poisoning.

Dang..

Well, sugar and caffeine dependencies are absolutely real.

Therefore the combination of both addictive elements coupled with Tp4's unlimited supply certainly paints a gloomy future..

OMG.. hahaha this video is in the wiki quit chocolate link .

I'm not a fan of chocolate myself, but I wonder if theobromine poisoning could cause hallucinations at at what point side effects of it start to kick in on average. Perhaps we can use TP as a rat and run experiments on him to find out since he seems inclined to over-indulge anyway.
