Another seasonal feature here on Sugoi Stuff would be Okashii News – newsbits that are funny-odd (okashii meaning strange, amusing, funny). This might not be funny to you but some members of Team Sugoi are just plain choco-fiends, with our latest contributor, GenkiChelli, a choco dealer as well.

The lot of them have been trying to convince me that chocolates will cure my depression claiming the age-old argument that chocolates boost happy chemicals. Well, whoever claims that chocolate is better than sex is a damned virgin.

Happy chemicals? Well I guess unless it’d be these chocolates, I wouldn’t readily bet on happy chems just yet. This sweets shop owner just laced his goods with hallucinogenic ‘shrooms and marijuana.
Unfortunately for the shop owner, he was nabbed trying to sell these goodies.

Police said, “In the shop we found 120 pieces of magic mushroom chocolate and countless cannabis lollipops.” They also found jars of laced honey.

Well, he should’ve moved to Amsterdam before trying this stunt.

No one wants just a piece of a Ferrari (since definitely everyone wants the whole car), except probably with this one. What you’re looking at isn’t an F1 car that would hit the tracks for this year’s racing season. It’s a 4,405-lb. hunk of Belgian chocolate from nose to tail.

This chocolate Ferrari F1 was made in Italy and will be the centerpiece of the Scuderia Ferrari Club Napoli’s club party. The car, which took more than a year to build, will be displayed and then it will be smashed out with hammers then be handed out to party guests. Now not everyone would be probably end up cringing with the site of this F1 getting smashed to pieces. That’s Belgian chocolate and who wouldn’t want to have a piece.

Mind you that this is a life-size model of the Ferrari F2008 (this year’s version of the F1 track car). Everything’s edible, including the red coating. Want one? Be ready with at least £12,000.
