3. Right now it's M&Ms.

Mainly because I can get a choco. rush w/o loads of calories and sugar. If I wasn't afraid of developing diabetes, I would eat high-quality dark chocolate truffles. Godiva. Oh, and now there's this brand spanking new chocolate store across the street and down the block from my house called Stam Chocolatiers that is to die for, better than Godiva's IMO. Dangerous.
