Spring Fever
I'd once read that chocolate contains a chemical that, upon consumption, causes humans to experience the feeling of being "in love". I've never encountered that sensation when eating chocolate, however, today I believe I've found the food that triggers that particular response in me. Maybe it's all the spring weather we've been having or perhaps it's the emergence of the tulips and daffodils, but today I let some crispy pan-fried pork belly melt on my tongue and I felt positively euphoric. I swooned, and then I fell in love.
