Having been asked to comment, I can only say this:

Put down the chocolate and back away and no one will get hurt.

There is no such thing as 'Death by Chocolate'.

I make no claim to knowing much about cooking and such - I am NEVER to 
be feast steward,
according to my oldest and closest friends who have witnessed me burning 
water (true story!).

I would never want to 'rule' on the periodicity of something delectable 
to so many - but, sadly,
I am not a cheesecake afficianado. I will eat it, but I will not 
necessarily seek it out. Given the
choice between cheesecake and chocolate I will head for the chocolate 
every time (the darker
the better). Now, a chocolate cheesecake would DEFINITELY have my total 
attention.
