Eating chocolate makes people happy because it contains phenylethylamine, which is the same hormone triggered by the brain when you fall in love.

Chocolate also contains theobromine, which acts as a myocardial stimulant, smooth-muscle relaxant, and dilator of coronary arteries.

Madame Du Barry and Casanova both believed that chocolate was an aphrodisiac for romance.

Montezuma reportedly drank a goblet of cacao beverage right before he entered his harem, where he slept with a different partner each night.
