    Yeah but Mushy dildos just don't work

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    It's not shit, it's bananas.:) They make you happier when you freeze them and jam them up your crevasse, apparently. Never tried it, but judge not, eh. You learn a lot here, it's like BBC2.

    Unless you have a rare chocolate allergy that causes you to lose every molecule of water in your body through your arse and you end up looking like a vacuum sealed bag.

    Bananas don't make me happy.
    Now chocolate - that makes me happy.
    Chocolate understands when I've had a tough day, chocolate understands my needs, chocolate is always there.
    The other day I was thinking about covering a ferrero rocher in nutella -must try that.

    Yup, OP, very true.

    Along with eggs, coriander, turkey and avocado. All foods that contribute to the release of serotonin. :)

    Everything you eat releases seritonin/dopamine.
    Our brain tells us food is good, here's a reward so you keep eating.

    Not all foods are created equal.

    For example, some foods get you feeling full faster and for longer (protein), and some foods get you releasing more serotonin on account of their nutrient content, than others. That's what I've read anyway. :)

    Also, I feel much better and my mood is much sunnier when I'm eating healthily, than if I'm eating junk.

    What about Chocolate Bananas?

    I love dipping bananas in melted chocolate and have had chocolate covered dried bananas also, delicious they were.

    I'm a Plantain man myself, not the same 'natural sugar rush' as the Banana, but equally as satisfying, though I don't think Plantains make me happier, a lot of people tell me that I'm a sad fuc*er.
