4 signs my 5 year old is a chocoholic

1) Dessert is her favorite course at the meal. (h/t my wife for fixing the misspelling.)
2) She sees in every piece of Matza an opportunity for chocolate spread.
3) When I show her the ice cream I just bought on sale, and she recognizes the package of "Double Fudge Brownie" she says "oooh, my favorite."
4) When we go to Rita's she keeps on drinking my "Death by chocolate" Misto until finally trading me her pedestrian chocolate custard for the rest of my Misto.

Have you seen the warning signs in your child?

My older boy is already free-basing chocolate chip cookies. I expect to see him dealing to support his habit before too long.

Barbara - it is one of my vices too.
Crablaw - Have you noticed that more and more high end chocolates are labelled 65% or 90% pure? Freebasing may not be too far off.
Hmm. Chocolate - good for your heart and addictive.

BTW, not to encourage your son's habit or anything but this week's Safeway circular is advertising Chips Ahoy as a 2 for 1 sale. (until next Tuesday.)
