Chocolate : A deadly sin?

Ranked #20,323 in Food & Cooking, #367,709 overall

What is chocolate?

Apart from the greatest temptation ever,

Chocolate is a mixture of cocoa paste, cocoa butter, and sugar. Nowadays, we know its precise chemical composition. It is considered as a complimentary  food, since all three organic substances exist (although not well balanced):  carbohydrates (starch, diverse sugars), fats (cocoa butter), and vegetable  proteins.

    This looks so good, I'm inspired to make myself a nice big Ghirardelli hot chocolate with whipped cream!

    Have you tried any of the chocolate made by Xocai? A friend just turned me on to it, and in terms of taste and health benefits, it's unmatched as far as I've seen. If you really are a chocoholic, it's worth a try. Below is my site, and you can email me through it if you have questions. Enjoy!
