National Chocolate Day 2018: Where to save on sweet treats and get freebies Sunday



Two weeks after National Dessert Day and three days before Halloween, Sunday is National Chocolate Day. 

 According to the National Confectioners Association, there are 16 different made-up holidays for chocolate and a few dates have been designated as National Chocolate Day. But Oct. 28 is the most commonly cited day, says National Today, a website that has a calendar of these holidays.

 There are a lot of ways to enjoy chocolate aside from a candy bar. 

 Ranker, a crowd-sourced voting platform, found the five best chocolate products are: chocolate chip cookies, chocolate brownies, Kit Kat, Twix, and Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Fudge Brownie Ice Cream.

It’s now easy to believe a man can fly. It wasn’t in 1978, but today, in midst of an explosion of superhero movies, it’s a belief we give into with relative ease.
