Great Post @aneeb

You mean the chocolate bar weighED 5800 lbs. I am sure it has long since been eaten! Just think about how much math whoever ate it can do now.

I like the first point, haha.

Story time: I had a final exam for an abstract math course called Real Analysis in a small room. The professor kindly gave us students some chocolate during the exam. He claimed that chocolate is good for you and the brain. I think he was right as I scored better than I thought. The chocolate might have been a factor.

I did not know about points 2 and 5. Thank you.

Avoid chocolate with lot of sugar, pick only with lot of cocoa :)
