Dark Chocolate is available across the border
We have found the healthy form of dark chocolate. Unfortunately, it is in Canada at the "NO FRILLS" store. This European Dark Chocolate is made by President’s Choice which is connected with Loblaws Incorporated, Montreal, H4N 3L4, Toronto, Canada. Their phone number is 1.888.495.5111. Due to FDA regulations, they are not allowed to ship this product to U.S. residents. This dark chocolate is the real thing. It is made from 70 percent cocoa solids (pronounced ka-kow). One hundred grams cost me $1.99 and contained about 30 pieces. One-half bar contains 300 calories (50 grams).
The ingredients are organic unsweetened chocolate, organic raw cane sugar, organic cocoa butter, soy lecithin, organic vanilla extract. This is a certified organic product by "Quality Assurance International."
The dark chocolate is not as sweet as milk chocolate and contains no milk products. One-half bar contains 15 g of sugar (that is about half of what most yogurt contains. It also contains 4 percent calcium and 35 percent iron, 24 percent fiber and 25 mg of sodium, 4 grams of protein.
I am trying to arrange to obtain this product for my readership. The daily amount suggested should be no more than 50 grams.
Once again the U.S. government has prevented access to a healthy food product in order to protect the sugar-laden chocolate products of the U.S.
Eating healthy is difficult when our children are inundated with grease, sugar, fat and high fructose corn syrup products. Keep trying to get good food on the table and use your internet to access healthy information on nutritional products.
The No Frills store is located on Garrison Road near WalMart and the chocolate products are in the last aisle to the right. They also have Wild Pacific Red Salmon sealed in 4 oz portions for less than $5. The Gold Seal Wild Pacific Sockeye Salmon is $1.79 for a 6 ounce portion and is really healthier than fresh Atlantic Salmon which is farm-raised and contains contaminates that cause cancer.
Don’t be fooled by the promotion of this grey salmon that is colored with red dye to look like wild Alaskan salmon. Wild salmon is as red as beef and contains healthy Omega-3. U.S. canned salmon does not list the Omega3 in the Nutritional Facts information. Living healthy amounts to eating healthy - especially for active senior citizens who need every tool to health available.
Some of my readers are fooled by price and the similarity between the words Atlantic and Alaskan referring to the location where the salmon was caught. Wild frozen salmon can be purchased for less than $4.99/lb. Fresh King or Sockeye Salmon is not available year long and can cost anywhere from $12.99/lb to $26/lb. Of course pills, surgery, cancer and other illnesses make all these prices look cheap by comparison. Being penny-wise and pound foolish is the problem of uninformed Americans.
