It's all in the chocolate!
"Chocolate consumption could hypothetically improve cognitive function not only in individuals but in whole populations.

Countries with more money have more luxuries AND better education systems? Shocking! You could probably draw a similar conclusion with fancy tea doilies.
Or maybe I'm just bitter because I am allergic to chocolate.
