Xicolatada

If you can't get to Palau de Cedagne in south western France on August 16, make sure you enjoy a hot chocolate at precisely 11 am.

This is to celebrate Xicolatada, a festival that has grown out of the tradition of serving hot chocolate from a secret recipe designed as a hangover cure.

Excessive consumption of the beverage is not recommended, however, as it is believed to cause a large red condom to grow out of your head.
