And it can't be chocolate unless it's processed. Chocolate doesn't grow
on trees.

I do miss my 85% cocoa dark chocolate bars. Just a 1" square x 1/4"
piece every other day was like eating a whole box of cookies, it was so
rich and satisfying! :(

Best,

Andy, 85% dark chocolate is one of the things we can eat in moderation (your size of square sounds good)

why have you had to give it up?

kate,

My fat is divided (based on a 2300 calorie daily intake):

Percent of calories from fat: 30%

Total Fat: 78g/daily
Saturated fat: 10% (8g)
Mono-unsaturated fat: 70% (54g)
Poly-unsaturated fat: 20% (15g)


One square of 85% dark chocolate is 12g sat. fat. An instant daily overdose. I have to spread it around, carefully.

Best,

Andy
dang........ you count the fat in your chocolate?

i'd never be able to eat chocolate then! :)
