Here's a fun chocolate quiz!
Q. - Most Americans prefer A.)
Dark Chocolate or B.) Milk Chocolate?
A. - Milk Chocolate, according to surveys conducted
by the Chocolate Manufacturers Association.
Q. - What is Milk Chocolate?
A. - In 1876 Daniel Peter, a Swiss candy maker,
developed milk chocolate by adding condensed milk to a chocolate
mixture made from the inner part of the cocoa bean. Semisweet
and bittersweet chocolate contain more chocolate liquor
and less condensed milk and sugar than regular milk chocolate.
Q. - What is White Chocolate?
A. - White chocolate is a combination of cocoa
butter, sugar, butterfat, milk solids and flavorings. It
gets it's chocolate flavor and ivory color from the cocoa
butter. If the color of the product is bright white, there
is no cocoa butter used in the production process. This
is called confectionery coating.
Q. - True or False?
A one ounce serving of chocolate contains the same amount
of caffeine found in one cup of decaffeinated coffee?
A. - TRUE! Contrary to popular opinion, chocolate is not
considered high in caffeine.
Q. - Which food is more likely to cause tooth decay? A.)
Wheat Bread. B.) Potato Chips C.) Chocolate Bar D.)Sugar
Cookie
A. - All are about the same. None is more likely
than the other to cause tooth decay. Any food containing
fermentable carbohydrates such as starch or sugar can contribute
to tooth decay. How often we eat these foods and how long
they stay in contact with the teeth determines the likelihood
of their causing cavities.
Q. - True or False?
Cocoa butter, the primary fat in chocolate, does not raise
cholesterol levels.
A. - TRUE! In research studies, neither cocoa butter
nor chocolate raise blood cholesterol levels.
Q. - Why is some Chocolate more expensive than others?
A. - Like fine wine, the price depends on the processing
and quality of the original ingredients. Better cocoa beans,
a greater percentage of cocoa butter, more extensive refining
during manufacture, and the amount of hand work needed to
fashion the chocolate are all factors used in determining
the final price.
Q. - Why do we love Chocolate?
A. - Chocolate is unique amoung foods. It is used
as an ingredient, a flavoring and a foodstuff. As such,
it holds a special place in the culinary universe. Eating
a small piece of chocolate is a heavenly experience - cocoa
butter melts at body temperature and so there is that moment
when the chocolate is no longer solid and not yet liquid.
This sensation is irresistible to chocolate lovers. But
there is more! Chocolate's aroma, it's ability to create
"taste memories" and it's indescribably rich flavor
all combine to make it a food most people cannot resist!
Wasn't that fun learning about
a favorite food?
