January 10, 2018 is
Bittersweet Chocolate Day
Today is Bittersweet Chocolate Day! Bittersweet chocolate is
a sweetened form of dark chocolate made with cocoa liquor, sugar, cocoa butter,
and vanilla. Unlike milk chocolate or white chocolate, it does not contain any
milk solids. According to FDA standards, bittersweet chocolate must contain at
least 35% chocolate liquor (a non-alcoholic liquid produced from cocoa
beans).
Consuming bittersweet chocolate on a daily basis is actually
quite good for you. All variations of dark chocolate contain antioxidants that
lower blood pressure and help protect your heart. Other heart-healthy foods
include green tea and blueberries!
In honor of Bittersweet Chocolate Day, treat yourself to a
few pieces of your favorite variety!
- January 10, 2018 is also Houseplant Appreciation Day
