The following is a “script” for one of Matt’s segments:
Thanks for listening and thanks for supporting our friends and neighbors in the food-service industry!
As Matt’s Meals and Connoisseurs Corner fans know, I love chocolate and am always looking for varieties that offer new flavors and/or new health benefits. I have recently sang the praises of the dairy-free delight known as Schmilk Chocolate, the secret superfood snack known as Undercover Chocolate, the body-boosting benefits of Flava Naturals, and the brightly-wrapped bon bons from the Happy Chocolatier, but I have also come upon a pair of new sweet treats that bring new benefits to the table (at least until I eat them, that is!).
Though it is made by the same master European craftspeople that create many of our favorite chocolates, Red Chocolate has half the calories of most, making a Holiday (or ANY day) indulgence easier to bear. In fact, one piece of their all-natural and deliciously decadent-tasting dark chocolate has the same calorie count as a slice of apple. It has almost more patents than calories and comes in such tempting varieties as extra dark, dark with orange and almond, and milk with hazelnut and macadamia, so there is something for almost everyone and less for everyone too!
Another recent rave is for my old friends at Designer Protein, who have recently released bars that have only 7 grams of sugar, but also 10 grams of whey protein and 85 percent natural dark cacao! I have used DP products for eons but these bars raise the bar big time! One even has quinoa, making it much like my long-time fave Undercover (who are actually releasing new flavors for the holidays, so be sure to check them out!).
With all the chocolate choices, it can be hard to choose just one. Fortunately, as so many offer so many benefits, indulging has never been so good!
