What About Chocolate And Your Pets?

pets
Chocolate is considered dangerous to animals because it contains a stimulant called theobromine, which they can’t digest. Dark chocolate and baking chocolate are even more dangerous because they contain higher concentrations of the substance. This applies whether chocolate is in candy bar form, or an ingredient in cake, cookies, puddings or ice cream. If a pet becomes ill after eating chocolate, take it to the vet immediately.

Dark chocolate is allowed on the popular Montaignac diet while milk chocolate is not.
