Naked Chocolate
When i reached into the mystery box i pulled out a pink and brown checkered box that says "Naked Chocolate" on the top. Obviously it is a box of chocolate. The first though that came to mind when i pulled this out was that i am allergic to chocolate. I for the longest time had no idea that i was allergic. I found out i was allergic to chocolate when i was around ten years old. I would eat chocolate so much when i was younger and i would always break out with hives all over my body. Eventually they just never went away! Little did i know that it was because i was eating chocolate so much. One day my mom was talking to wade (my "father") on the phone and she had mentioned to him something about how i was breaking out with hives all over my body a lot and how they would not go away and then he felt the need to let her know that he was allergic to chocolate. He waited about nine or ten years before he felt the need to say something about that! It made both me and my mom so mad. So after she found this news out she took me to the doctor to have me tested for it and it turns out that i really was allergic to chocolate and that is why i had hives almost none stop! So after i found that out at the age of ten, i stopped eating chocolate completely. I haven't had chocolate in almost nine years and i have not had the hives show back up at all. That just proves they were truly caused my the chocolate. People often ask me if i miss chocolate or a typical response when someone finds out that i am allergic to chocolate is "aw I'm so sorry for you". Well I'm definitely not sorry for me! I don't miss chocolate at all and i haven't though about it in almost nine years. When you go without something for so long you just stop caring after a certain point. That is exactly what happened with me and chocolate. After a year without it i stopped caring and just don't ever think about it. There are other candies that i enjoy eating that do not have chocolate in them.
