Topic Reading-Vol.1703-12/9/2016

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Nestle says will cut sugar in chocolate by 40%
Any idea how much sugar is used in chocolate? There is no one clear answer for it as it varies widely by type, color and product. But unless you eat chocolate to get energy to survive in the winter mountain or starvation, you most likely wish less sugar per bite. One solution to reduce sugar use is to substitute it with some other substance such as aspartame or saccharin, neither of which provides the same level of satisfaction as sugar does. If you simply cut the amount of sugar per serving, chocolate won’t taste as sweet as you expect, thus you eat more of it or choose something with more sugar in it.
The world food giant and also the largest chocolate products producer, Nestle, has come up with a breakthrough technology to reduce the amount of sugar while maintaining the same level of sugary taste in their chocolates. Wow. How do they do that?
Enjoy reading and thinking which would be your choice of chocolate regular or reduced-sugar.
