Chocolate Fever by Robert Kimmel Smith*

Henry Green loves chocolate and eats it at every meal.  One day he breaks out in chocolate spots all over his body.  After running away from the doctors at the hospital, he hitches a ride with a truck driver to hide from society.  A series of exciting events helps Henry realize his deeper issue than just loving chocolate too much!
Warning: The truck driver and Henry are hijacked.  The thieves have guns and threaten them with the guns.  Henry runs away and hitchhikes.
