OT - Calcium in chocolate

In article , Curly writes

Drinking chocolate made with lots of milk. Or chocolate milkshakes.

Glass of freezing cold milk woth ground up Belgian chocolate in it? Chocolate chip dairy ice cream?

LOL! There is also something on the market, that, though directed at women, I think is fine for anybody (DS actually took some of mine when he was dairy limited). For some reason, I can't remember the name, but they are soft chews that come in chocolate, caramel, and a couple other flavors. Personally, I loved the caramel ones, and since I don't like drinking milk, they really helped me get the calcium I needed during first pregnancy.

Larisa, not sure if you wanted calcium advice or chocolate advice

There are both calcium and vitamin C chews at GNC, whichever your need is. In addition, there are calcium chews at almost any large chain drug store - The big danger is in overdosing!

One brand name is Viactiv. I like the Mocchachino flavor. It's not chocolate, but I have also started buying the frozen orange juice concentrate with added calcium.

I would suggest dipping strawberrys in chocolate. A mere half pound of strawberrys has 31.75 mg of calcium in them. :-) Diana

Any! But dark chocolate is higher in anti-oxidants.

Thanks for the advice. I was sorta hoping they had created M&Ms with a 800mg hit of calcium!!Maybe!!! I hadn't thought to see what 'enriched wiith calcium' products were on the shelves. They probably have different names here in Oz. Annie
