Chocolate Baths the New Trend in Japan for Softer Skin

The Japanese have discovered that chocolate will do more than give your taste buds a treat and add inches to your waistline.

The new trend for smoother skin in Japan is to be bathed in chocolate….no kidding.

Meiji Confectionary is in on the new chocolate boom as as is Bathing, a specialy store in Tokyo.

Cocoa is mixed with magnesium to make the chocolate bubbly and to keep people from eating it. Once the bather is completely soaked in the mixture they are wrapped with an aluminum space blanket until they sweat buckets.

The result is smooth silkly skin for a week.

The baths are especially popular with couples on Valentine’s Day. I’ll say. You can have a bath and eat it, too.

What in the world?

Who sat down and thought…Hmmm… I wonder what will happen if I melt these boxes of chocolate and mix it with magnesium and soak myself in it with a space blanket.

Where do people come up with these ideas? And Japan?

How about it? A chocolate bath for smoother skin?

What do you think?
