Today is "National Chocolate Day," so make sure you treat yourself and celebrate! But, did you know that you might be eating chocolate all wrong?
According to experts, here are four ways to make it taste even better:
1. Stop chewing it so much. They say you'll taste it more if you press it up on the roof of your mouth and let it dissolve by sucking on it.
2. Stop eating it in huge chunks. Breaking it up into smaller pieces releases the aromas. So, you taste it more, especially if it's good chocolate.
3. Smell it before you eat it. Just like wine, experts say you should smell your chocolate before you pop it in your mouth. It primes your taste buds, so you get more of the flavor.
4. Stop washing it down so fast. The taste of chocolate lasts a fairly long time if you let it linger. So, you keep getting the flavor without eating more, which also saves calories.
