I do have sore throat when I eat chocolate and never drink water immediately after that. This always happen when I eat chocolate in my country. When I travelled to Australia or Europe, I do eat a lot of chocolate but did not suffer sore throat without water after that. It find it funny but then I realised maybe because of the hot climate in my country that help to develop the sore throat after the chocolate. So to really avoid sore throat I eat white chocolate to beat the crave for chocolate.

I have heard that there is an ingrediant in chocolate that soothes the sore throat.It;s called theobromide.I think chocolates will not give you sore throat if you eat in moderation.

i LOVE chocolates. But as my parents said too much is not good for you. It does not really give you sore throat. If you do not drink water after you have eaten your chocolates, then possibly you might have sore throat.

I never tried that before. I like chocolate but for some or another reason I don't eat too much candy, I don't like to. Especially of the same kind, how about you? Anyways, I will give it a try some time and let you know.

I donot feel that chocolate can harm u anyway. But excessive consumption can harm ur teeth.

Wow, I've never heard about chocolate doing that. Do you think it was just a way of her getting you to not eat so much of it?

eating chocolates can really give you sorethroat, they can even cause the inflamation of your tonsils. but not for me, because I drink a lot of water after eating chocolates.

No i dont think so. It doesn't actually give a sore throat. But eating a lot of chocolates could give you bad tooth. I eat quite a lot of chocolates myself but I'm always careful to wash ma mouth everytime..
