combine chocolate with vitamins for nourishing fun

I'm surrounded by people who seem to feel guilty whenever they eat chocolate. But they eat it anyway, so the guilt serves no purpose.

My thought is to put vitamins into chocolates: that way, instead of feeling guilty, people will be able to say "it contains 100 percent of my daily requirement of riboflavin" as they drift off into chocolate-fueled ecstasy.

Vitamin supositories are healthier and provide a different kind of ecstasy.

Baked. Viactiv makes calcium and vitamin D in chewy chocolate squares. I've tried them. EXCELLENT.

I think Viactiv is a neat way to get women to take more Calcium (that's the target market, anyways). But otherwise... noooooo! I think it's bad enough that kiddie vitamins are fun flavors and cool shapes; the littlest kids think they're candy. Then they eat tons, OD on iron or fat soluble vitamins... or they think all pretty orange pills are their vitamins and eat a handful of grandma's orange headache pills. I say just eat the chocolate, but make a pact with yourself to take a low-dose multivitamin first if your diet is really so terrible that you need one.

Djanaba, about little kids thinking fun-flavored vitamins are candy -- that's what PARENTS are for! It's their job to put the pretty, colorful tablets in a place where Junior or Sissy can't get to them.

Well, let's just say he wasn't very polite about it.

Chocolate is good for you! It is the all the sugar which is bad. Sweeten the chocolate with something healthy and tooth-friendly like xylotol, and go for it!
