    Our Daily Challenge ... saturated. (Won at bowls today by my husband!)

    Technically, chocolate contains saturated fat, but the particular type of saturated fat – stearic acid – is unique because it does not raise blood cholesterol.

    Studies show that neither dark or milk chocolate is a cholesterol concern in moderate amounts. Too much chocolate will increase kilojoule/calorie levels which can lead to overweight. Also keep in mind that other ingredients added to some chocolate candies can change their nutritional impact as well.
