Who loves chocolate?

It is a known fact that chocolate contains caffeine. But did you know that you would have to eat a dozen of chocolate bars to get the same amount of caffeine from a cup of coffee? There are about 5 to 10mg's of caffeine in one ounce of bitter chocolate, 5mg's in milk chocolate and 10mg's in a 6 ounce cup of cocoa. Chocolate is actually a valuable energy source. It has great health benefit. But do you know that chocolates can be deadly for dogs? It contains an ingredient called "Theobromine" which can be toxic to a dog's central nervous system and cardiac muscle. Milk chocolate is the one i love! Especially with almond nuts! Chocolate does not cause or aggravate acne, this is a myth! So just enjoy chocolates, nothing to worry about. I guess so... Maybe I'm wrong I've just read this to an article.

Yup, I love chocolates, especially those with nuts - almonds, hazelnuts and macadamia. So far no problems with acne, fortunately!

Thanks for sharing those things. I love chocolate too! I'd say my most favorite is milk chocolate then second is dark chocolate. Dark chocolate is healthier than milk chocolate though.

I love chocolate, even though I have a major caffeine aversion. Caffeine makes my heart do weird things like speed up and slow down all at the same time. I tend to avoid caffeine. I haven't drunk a cup of coffee in like four years. But chocolate is great! I don't know if I could ever cut it out of my diet completely. I also really like milk chocolate.
