Give your coworkers a buzz

In every office, there is someone who has a jar of candy on their desk. It might be a jar of hard candies, jelly beans or M&M's, but there will be a jar and people will inevitably find reasons to walk by it and grab a treat or two on occasion. To give your office mates a buzz, replace the candy jar with Rocket Chocolate. The individually wrapped milk chocolates have 150 mg of caffeine in each piece, which is as much as three cans of Coke and only slightly less than two cans of Red Bull. The creamy chocolate will help to quiet your sweet tooth, but the pick-me-up of the candy is what will really help get you through the afternoon.

Either your co-workers will be grateful for the extra buzz or they'll wonder why their second cup of coffee seems to be affecting them so strongly -- especially if they take more than one chocolate. Just try to make sure you don't let anyone with a caffeine sensitivity grab a piece unknowingly.

ALTHOUGHT THIS MIGHT BE A GREAT PRODUCT FOR SOME, IT VERY WELL BE EQUALLY DANGEROUS FOR THOSE WITH HEAT, PULMONARY, OR THOSE TAKING MEDICATIONS THAT COULD HAVE AN ADVERSE SIDE EFFECT. A SIGN SHOULD BE DISPLAY FOR EVERYONE TO SEE SO THAT THOSE WHO HAVE SUCH CONDITIONS COULD BE MADE AWARE.

(smile) While I agree with the warning of health risk should be highly visible to those with potential risk - I would love to try it (samples first of course) because I hate the taste of red bull but often times I need a energy boost by mid-day. How can we get a sample (to make sure it really is/does what you say)?

You can buy as few as 25 for $9.99 or as many as 600 for $239.49! The bummer is they do not have any packs that are a variety, so you would have to purchase 25 of each flavor if you wanted to try the different flavors. I did not see any calorie infomation on the web site, but I am sure you could email them for that information if you need it. I would imagine it has to have less sugar than 3 cokes!
