Why is Chocolate so Popular?
Chocolate is an appreciated universal indulgence, but its popularity has skyrocketed in recent years for a medley of reasons, including health ones!
Research studies consistently discover health benefits in food once thought to be a sinful indulgence, like red wine. Dark chocolate was also added to the list of “healthy” foods after flavanoids found in dark chocolate were determined to have health benefits.

Chocolate made from natural ingredients is also a draw for consumers, as it reduces health risks found from eating food with hydrogenated oils.
