Enjoyed Since Ancient Times, Experts Reveal What Makes Chocolate So Irresistible

Who doesn’t love chocolate? Whether as a treat, drink, or dessert, chocolate has been adored by people for thousands of years.

Dating back over 5,000 years, chocolate was once known as the “food of the gods” and even used as currency during the time of the Aztec and Maya civilizations.

Even today, chocolate remains one of the world’s most beloved indulgences, with global consumption reaching around 7.7 million metric tons a year. It’s no surprise, just one cup of hot chocolate is enough to turn a gloomy day into a cozy one. Without it, the day somehow feels incomplete.

But have you ever wondered why chocolate is so addictive?

According to experts, chocolate contains tryptophan, an amino acid that helps increase serotonin, the “happy hormone” responsible for boosting your mood. That explains why so many of us crave it daily, and why missing out can leave you feeling a little moody.

From Ancient Cocoa Beans to Modern Chocolate Delights

In ancient times, chocolate came in the form of dried cocoa beans. Today, it has evolved into countless forms of drinks, spreads, bars, and even irresistible sandwich biscuits like Charm by Julie’s.

Available in two decadent flavors like Tiramisu and Double Chocolate, Julie’s Charm biscuits deliver a luxurious chocolate experience in every crunchy, creamy bite. It’s no wonder they often sell out fast at supermarkets.

A Biscuit That’s Turning Heads And Sparking Fashion

From now until May 31st, head over to AEON or TF Value Mart and grab any 2 packs of Julie’s Charm sandwich biscuits. With your purchase, you’ll receive a limited-edition Charm Clutch, a fashionable accessory that’s as playful as it is exclusive.

Inspired by the shape and texture of the biscuit itself, the Charm Clutch turns heads with its bold, unique design. At first glance, you’d think someone’s walking around with a giant biscuit and honestly, you might feel tempted to take a bite!

So, What’s the Hype About?
