Even at 45, I still suffer from adult acne. People used to tell me it was from eating chocolate. Rubbish. It’s hormonal. I’m not sure that chocolate really influences that part of your body, but it always used to encourage me to feel guilty when I consumed it.

Why worry? Chocolate is a delightful substance: why on earth should I feel guilty about eating it! But modern Western society rejoices in making people feel guilty about anything that brings pleasure. Must be our Calvinist roots.
