Question 1 of 11
1. Question
Which kind of chocolate is healthiest?
Correct
It’s not up there with spinach, but dark chocolate is usually your healthiest bet. The darker the chocolate is the less fat and sugar it has.
Plus, dark chocolate usually is the least processed; that means it has the most antioxidant-like flavonoids, which may help lower blood pressure and cholesterol. The higher the percentage of cocoa, typically the more flavonoids the chocolate has.
But don’t eat lots of chocolate in the hope of better health.

Question 3 of 11
3. Question
How many milk chocolate bars would you have to eat to get the same amount of caffeine from one cup of coffee?
Correct
Chocolate does have caffeine. But if you’re looking to get a caffeine boost, chocolate isn’t your best bet.
You’d need to eat 14 regular-sized bars of milk chocolate to get the same caffeine as you’d find in your morning cup of coffee. That would have about 3,080 calories and more than 300 grams of sugar. Compared to only about two calories in a single cup of black coffee.
Dark chocolate does have more caffeine than milk chocolate. Even then, it would take four bars to give you the same caffeine hit as one cup of regular coffee.
