Chocolate has a long reputation as an aphrodisiac. Imagine…WebMD reports that “Aztec ruler Montezuma supposedly drank a chocolate-y concoction before visiting the women in his harem…And French doctors supposedly used it to treat broken hearts.”
Check Your Choc-o-holic IQ
Can’t resist this oh-so-chocolately quiz? Well, who could? Here’s the chocolate quiz, then come back to share your score!
Here are some tidbits I found fascinating, courtesy of WebMD:
- Dark chocolate does have more caffeine than milk chocolate. Even then, it would take four bars to give you the same buzz as one cup of regular Joe.
- Want to give your brownies or other chocolate baked goods a little extra chocolate-y goodness? Try adding a bit of instant espresso powder — a teaspoon or less — in your next recipe. Espresso powder can ramp up the chocolate taste in cakes, brownies, and cookies without adding coffee flavor or many calories.

Well, that was pretty fascinating. A couple of answers I got from reading your data first! But I only scored 11, so I know some new stuff now. And I still love chocolate!
Interesting. Scored 12, but got all the US cultural-specific questions wrong except for how much milk chocolate is consumed per person in the US. In Britain we eat more chocolate at Easter – Halloween doesn’t really feature
What a great quiz! Thanks for sharing Jan! 🙂
I got 12 – as a chocoholic I thought I would’ve scored higher lol, but as an Aussie I also answered some of the US specific questions wrong. I didn’t know that chocolate was prescribed for a broken heart, but I have had a dentist tell me that chocolate is better for your teeth than lollies… trouble is no one will believe me!!
Glad you enjoyed it, Heather!
