The data says amphetamine is derived from phenylethylamine which is a neurotransmitter that can cause mild excitement.
Best not to think of them as alike, in anyway. They aren't. If you want to get a glimpse, the movie The Salton Sea is overall a decent portrayal of how there is nothing mild about being tweaked out.

Research suggests chocolate chip cookies equivalent to drug addiction in the brain



I'll admit that I'm addicted to chocolate chip cookies, too.

Sugar and high glycemic carbs are very very addictive, and chocolate chip cookies is high, but twinkies and donuts got'em beat.

However there are some striking similarities and commonalities by which cocaine and chocolate could be considered 'kissing cousins'.

Cacao has pharmacologically active amounts of phenethylamine, which is the body’s natural amphetamine.

The body has a mechanism to tell the brain when enough food has been eaten.

This mechanism is turned off by a 50:50 mix of fat and sugar.

I voted other because it is my opinion that chocolate chip cookies have way way to much cookie and not nearly enough chocolate.
