Can you believe chocolate is poisonous?!


Question: I just found out, a lethal dose is 22 pounds. Crazy.


Answers: I just found out, a lethal dose is 22 pounds. Crazy.

22 pounds to make a lethal dose does not make it poisonous. Oxygen kills people; not only slowly over many years, but pure oxygen can kill immediately. It still is not poisonous. And how long a time period is required to eat that 22 pounds to be a lethal dose?

ahhhh nooooo

its poison for dogs also

NO

Dark Chocolate is actually very healthy.

I would say only if you are a dog!

well if someone could ever eat that much at once! that would be sickening

I think 22 pounds of anything will pretty much kill you.

WOW!

ya

hmmmm being a chocolate lover im not in favor of believing that....but too much of anything will kill you

If that were true I would have been dead years ago.

Who in their right mind would eat a 22 pound block of chocolate!

Ingesting 22 lbs of ANYTHING will kill you dead.

lol wow... haha thats actually pretty funny =). I guess you can learn something new every day.

yup I knew that and for me whenever i have chocolate and drive i get really sick to the stomach so thats when i found out! because my friend told me.

Well, if you ate 22 pounds of anything at one sitting you can expect some not very pleasant results.

They say chocolate is made out of rabbit crap

But what a way to go........mmmmmmmmmmm!!!

who could eat 22 pounds at a time anyway? You probably couldn't eat 1 pound before you got an upset stomach. It is poisonous for dogs at any level.

Anything can kill you, if used improperly or abused.

YES IT CAN BE ESPECIALLY IF YOU WERE TO TAKE AWAY FROM ME!!!

I CAN BE VERY DEADLY!!

Yeah thats wild isn't it!

Not to me but I don't find it healthy to eat 22 pounds of chocolate but I do agree that it's not really good for you(except for dark).

That's a big warning to mega fat people.

Same with coffee,
a certain crazy high amout will kill you.
However small amounts of caffeine is good for you.
Proving that balance is the key.

i believe that ~~
i believe if u have 22 pound of anything will kill someone ... bloat them to death

I ate so much chocolate once my lips got numb. Chocolate contains theobromine, (food of the gods), a chemical that has a direct effect on respiratory passages. A chocolate bar has much too low a dose of this chemical to affect breathing, but I can see there being a lethal dose.

o_O Yeah thats why I stopped eating a lot of candy a year ago and only have like a soda can a month.... and not a lot of chocolate....

This may be the single most inane statistic I've ever read. No-one in their right mind will ingest 22 lbs. of chocolate. And even if someone with a huge appetite and stomach could do so, that person would probably not die of it. They may heave it all up, however. And even if it is true, then 22 lbs of anything else is probably fatal as well. How can 22 lbs fit in a person's stomach, I ask you?

Did you know that chocolate companies have an acceptable amount of dead insects that they allow into there products...mmm yummy!

YA I CANT BELIVE IT CAUSE IT AINT TRUE U FAT LAIR!!!!! I JUST HAD MY BIRTHDEY I HAD CHOCOLATE AND IT AINT POSINOUS BECAUSE THEN HOW CAN I BE TYPING THIS :( NOT COOL DUDE NOT COOL!!!!
