Can a person have a headache for eating chocolate?

I've been consuming some dark chocolate for the last half hour and now I feel like my head is starting to spin.

Yes, absolutely. Chocolate was a trigger for me, especially dark chocolate. There are quite a lot of stimulants in chocolate. Theobromine is related to caffeine and there's more of it in chocolate than there is caffeine in coffee. It is milder in effect, though.

@GlassDog: That's strange. Despite what you said, the caffeine is milder in effect in chocolate than in coffee, I get sleepy when I drink coffee.
