As Joanne Harris' novel Chocolat whets you appetite, the exhibition currently in the MShed does the same. Tastiest exhibition called Chocolate! has been extended until 23rd June due to popular demand. The exhibition unwrappes secrets and stories of chocolate makers who lived in the city over the past 300 years, exploring the history, mystery, magic and science of the product.
But... why do we like chocolate that much? There are actual studies to back up some of the physical effects you can experience while eating chocolate. The stimulation your body gets provides a pleasant feeling to your taste buds, making you always come back for more. In the exhibition, you will also find out why chocolate tastes so good.
According to some sources, as chocolate comes from plants, it contains many of the health benefits of dark vegetables, acting like antioxidants, protecting our body from free radicals, which can lead to heart diseases. However, chocolate does contain fats and sugars, which are not healthy, but as long as you eat in moderation, the science suggests you can add as much as a year to your life.
