Our article on chocolate and body mass index was the topic of the most emailed NY Times story that day, as well as the most emailed Medscape story. It was the leading news story from the University for that month (March), though it came out near the end of the month (Mar 26), besting the next biggest news story for the University that month by a factor of two; that story was also from our lab (on trans fats and aggression).
