I packed this bon bon in my briefcase to accompany me on a business trip this week. It survived the flight across country relatively intact, and I continued my chocolate-before-breakfast routine this week in keeping with a full schedule. Sleep doesn't really matter when you have chocolate bon bons by your side, right?

I'm on the road this week. Traveling through time zones on business is always a bit harried. I ate this sometime before breakfast before jumping on a plane. I find I can eat chocolate any time of the day, but my guess is that certain taste and brain receptors are more alert during certain hours. (Another future experiment I'll have to research.)
