II - The mannerism (habit) of chocolate
The habitude of chocolate can, in certain cases, being regarded as a food disorder. With regard to the chocolate amateurs, one can distinguish two types from them: With regard to the chocolate amateurs, one can distinguish two types from them: those, 8 times more, which seek sugar rather and which privileges the milk chocolate, with hazel nuts or filled, and those which prefer the black chocolate with 60 or 70 % of cocoa, among which one finds the chocolate lover.

The chocolate lover mannerism (habit or custom) is thus defined in the work of 1985, carried out by Doctor Favre-Bismuth and Grouzmann, according to the following criteria:

- exclusive black chocolate catch (with more than 50 % of cocoa)
