Coffee, Chocolates And FaceBook Addiction

By Staff

One of the the most addictive behaviors of the Britishers, is the social networking site Facebook. Leading the list is coffee and chocolates. The results of the survey were contradictory to earlier favorite addictions like drugs, sex and cigarettes.

As reported by the Daily Express, lifestyles of 3,000 participants under the age of 30 were examined. The survey was a part of a programme 'Rehab', which exhibits rehabilitation and addiction on the Living channel. The study focused on the substances and habits focused most by the participants.


They were further quizzed on the habits they previously attempted to cut down and the modern influences ruling the lives in 2009. Topping the 10 most addictive habits was coffee followed by chocolates, third on the list was FaceBook, which the Britons confessed having to log on every now and then.

A pleasant surprise was the fact that, most expected habits like cigarettes and alcohol did not even make up to the top 10. The most popular traditional vice was vanity, with addiction to beauty products landing fourth on the list. Fifth on the list is the repeated checking of the bank accounts due to the economic recession. AGENCIES
