No Taxes on Chocolate

What about this thing I heard on the BBC this morning?  A suggestion to impose vice taxes on chocolate, like cigarettes and alcohol!  Listen up world:  it's time to stop thinking of chocolate as a bad thing.  All these recipes called "chocolate sin" and the like; they've got to stop.  

Chocolate is a blessed form of grace, nearly wide enough to qualify as a common grace.   Taken at the right times, it can almost transform us and bring us into a new hope.
