Cola
& Chocolate
|
For
those who obtain your caffeine fix from the following culinary novelties,
there is still time for enlightenment:
A 12 oz Coca-Cola has 46 mg of caffeine. A Coca beverage
(8 oz.) gives you a 3-32 mg fix. Milk Chocolate (1 oz.) gives
a 1-15 mg fix, and I am not aware of any red-blooded American who
would appreciate only 1 oz. of milk chocolate at a time. One oz. of
semisweet chocolate (my preference) will supply a 5-35 mg rush.
There is help for cola drinkers and chocolate gobblers. You too can
graduate and join the ranks of Javamanity. Pick up the phone and call
1-800-JAVAMAN. There are different self-help packages geared for your
individual special needs. They will elevate you to javatry on a heady
aroma, and you can specify whether it should be Columbian Hazelnut
or Peruvian Coca.
For those who want to shake the coffee habit and if your hand is steady
enough for you to type on your keyboard, then try www.javadetox.com.
They offer different self-help packages for all of javamanity, whichever
level you're on. All proceeds go to the International Tea Growers
Association.
