Learn about "chocolate health benefits"
Chocolate enjoys a health halo due to its antioxidant properties.But it is also high in sugar and VERY HIGH in saturated fats. So you should limit yourself to LESS THAN the recommended serving size.But the antioxidant levels vary greatly depending on its processing. In general, milk chocolates have a very small amount of antioxidants, so you should opt for dark chocolate with a high percentage of cocoa. If your chocolate has been "alkalized", that means it has undergone processing to remove its bitter taste. Unfortunately, the bitter taste comes from those very same antioxidants...

Contains artificial flavors. Learn why
Companies add artificial flavors to products to make them taste better. They are created in a lab and the formulations are guarded as trade secrets. Flavorings can compensate for flavor loss during processing, substitute for ingredients, lower production costs and increase shelf stability. Artificial flavorings are cheaper to source than natural flavors and are perceived as "worse" than natural flavors. They are more stable (and usually less chemically complex) than natural flavors.Artificial flavors are not necessarily bad for you from a health perspective. however, people with food sensitivities or allergies may want to avoid artificial flavors if they are unnamed. You can always contact the manufacturer for more information.

Learn about soy lecithin, found here
Lecithins are oily substances that occur naturally in plants (soybeans) and animals (egg yolks). Soy lecithin possesses emulsification properties. This means it can keep a candy bar "together" by making sure that the cocoa and the cocoa butter don't separate. It is also used in bakery items to keep the dough from sticking and to improve its ability to rise.
