What Nidam al-Tayyibat says
Chocolate is allowed, dark, milk or white, despite the system's strict position on liquid milk, presumably by the same logic that allows processed cheeses.
Sources differ: Une source réserve le chocolat noir (70 % et plus) à un usage très occasionnel ; une autre admet le chocolat en général.
What conventional nutrition says
Dark chocolate rich in cocoa is the best option; all remain sugary, fatty products to be eaten in moderation.
