New research reveals that 53% of the adult UK female population - around 12 million women - would rather have a nibble than nookie. A staggering 89% confessed to experiencing physical cravings for chocolate and one in five admitted they couldn't go a day without chocolate.
The poll of 2,500 women was conducted by Red Letter Days, to coincide with the launch of two chocolate-themed experience days.
Over 40% of females said they get 'cranky' if deprived of their choccy fix and 37% consider it an "integral part" of their day. Men, on the other hand, would always plump for sex over chocolate (78%).
And despite both sexes consuming the same average amount of chocolate a week - the equivalent to six small bars - men are less likely to admit their addiction.Only 33% of guys declared they were chocoholics, compared to 51% of girls.

For the record, I'm not opposed to men or sex, it's just REALLY hard to find one that is worth the effort. If I ever do find one that's better than chocolate - I'm not sharing!

OH MY GOD!!! I AM SO JEALOUS!! That cake looks amazing! I'm drooling on the keyboard! Not a champagne person but I think I could make an exception for that one!
If the link leelu provided does not work, please copy and paste the url to check out this sinful creation!
With no sense of smell, I didn't pick up on the champagne at all. My husband said it was "complex," so maybe that means he noticed it! But that dark chocolate shell was incredible!
Since it's only 4" tall, I couldn't resist splurging for his bday. hee hee
