Dark chocolate is a great measure of how your palate changes with diet. When I was a carb burner, 70% chocolate was very bitter and unenjoyable to me. After a few years of keto, now the 85% is a very sweet treat.
@queendubya29143 жыл бұрын
I agree with you! I have a 100% bar I bought a month ago, and I can eat a little 1/2 inch square of that and it tastes perfect to give me a “ chocolate fix” once or twice a week.
@reevinriggin35703 жыл бұрын
Now I use the 95% cacao and have 2 squares to "kill" my cravings for sweets. It works and it is definitely a good thing for me as long as I am careful to not overdo it. I could never have taken the bitter chocolate a few years ago. Now since I don't eat sugar I pick up the hint of sweetness and LOVE the bitterness of the cacao.

Here's the thing. Not all dark chocolate is the same. Most popular brands usually have terrible practices and their chocolate is just not good. Brands like Hershey's or Milka are straight away bad. Even Lindt, that's also show here, although it's higher quality. They are mostly known for their milk chocolate, which has so little actual cacao in it, that it's just a shame. Hershey's and the British Cadbury are notorious with coming up with the "genius" idea of significantly reducing the cocoa content and adding tones of milk powder and sugar, and thus killing the popular at the time DRINK that was the chocolate and giving birth to the modern candy bars at the beginning of the last century (I'm not pretending to be historically correct, so don't quote me on this). This wasn't all bad, before that, chocolate was a treat only for the rich, but... the problem with lowering the cost because milk and sugar were dirt cheap compaired to cocoa, is that all the benefits of the cocoa are now gone. The amazing drink, that the ancients were using and the modern candy bars have NOTHING in common. This is why you need to go as high as 85% or 100% to get rid of added sugar, and the real problem - the chocolate simply doesn't taste good. I can talk for hours about chocolate, but what you need to know is this. Good chocolate is a lot like coffee and wine - the origin is important and the quality varies a lot. What I've found in the last couple of years is Colombian is pretty good. Like most good things it's a little pricey and (the one I use - Luker) it's mostly used as an ingredient and row materials by chocolatiers. I think they have bars, but I've never tried them. But their pouches filled with small disks of single origin chocolate are just amazing. Let's say that as a former sugar junkie, I've never thought I'd like dark chocolate one day. And that I'd like it more than the milk one. All the ones I've tried (Santander, Huila, Macondo, Palenque) have natural sweetness to it despite the high cocoa percentage - between 55 and 75 - and VERY rich taste. Very dark ones like Tumaco, that are 85% require a little time to get used to, but all of them are definitely nothing like I've ever tasted before. And it's pretty difficult to overeat on this chocolate (although not impossible) because it is so dense and rich. Bottom line - go for Colombian, go for Italian (careful with the Belgian), read the ingredients and taste real chocolate. You're not gonna regret it. And that's it - that's my journey with fasting, keto/low carb and chocolate. I definitely use it as a treat, not an everyday part of my diet, but I've no doubt that it's more than worth it and has more benefits than downsides. I hope this helps. Cheers from Bulgaria!

Most dark chocolate bars are made with cocoa and not actual raw cacao, so even 100% still gonna have little to no health benefits. The best thing you can do is go right to the source and buy raw cacao powder and mix it in things or cacao nibs and do whatever with those. Just remember when you consume raw cacao, do not use heat or you will destroy the antioxidants.

Its not just the carbs that matter but also the oxalate content. Organic cocoa sourced from Ecuador or Peru are perhaps the lowest in oxalates with Ecuador also having full fat content. The range for 100 gm can be anywhere from 330-1700+/-. Navitas cacao is sourced from Sierra Leone (West Africa) - I asked for their oxalate content but haven't heard back yet. HU Gems also claim to use organic cocoa & coconut sugar. 12 nibs (1/2 oz) have 6 carbs and eaten with 6 pecan halves are a delicious snack. But a new snack I found is Jojo's Dark Chocolate bars. One bar is 34 gm (1.2 oz) with 12 gm carbs - I eat 1/3 bar for 4 gm carb. Very satiating if you can portion control!

@@kathygilchrist9538, well, not so much, at least not in my case. I get my bloodwork done every three months (I have a genetic condition that has to be watched periodically) and my HbA1c is always around 5, my glucose below 75 and my insulin around 3,5. I use mainly erythritol and stevia. I don't sweet my beverages but I do sweet my yaourth (12 oz a day), my muffins (two medium sized a day, made of flaxeed and coconut flour) and my tiramisù. Maybe you can call my diet a dirty low carb one (I include natto and lupins every day) but my numbers are quite good. It works for me.

I'm hooked on 100% cacao , since ending a short sugar addiction I have no desire for ultra sweet anything anymore.

Just started eating the 92% cacao formula. Just sweet enough to where I want to eat some but also just bitter enough to where I don't want to eat too much. However, even at that 92% version, sugar is still the 3rd ingredient.

My breakfast (at 11am) consists of 2 Brazil nuts and 2 squares of 95% LINDT with black coffee. Couldn't have the latter two, a few years ago without milk/sugar!

Enjoyed your memories of going to the Hershey factory. I grew up 30 minutes away from Battle Creek, Michigan's Kellogg cereal factory. Wow did it smell good in there.
@drmarctagon3 жыл бұрын
Lindt is one of the brands I use and I buy 85% or 90%. I find that 85% is the sweet (no pun intended) spot between staying keto and enjoying a treat and I have no issue sticking to the portion size (yes!).

I chose the cacao-nibs instead of a dark (full blown) chocolate bar. The nibs are less processed and probably better for you.

I eat the unsweetened Baker's Dark Chocolate, and it's bitter at first, but I quickly got used to it. I find that our taste buds alter as we cut out more and more sugar.
