Chocolate is such a delicious confection that sometimes you want to eat the whole bar in one go.

However, you shouldn't do this. Quick consumption of sweets will deprive the gourmet of the chance to enjoy all the taste qualities of the product.

It is not advisable to chew chocolate. This is not quite the right way to consume the confectionery product.

To fully experience the bright flavors of the chocolate, you need to gradually dissolve each individual piece.

How to eat chocolate correctly

First, you need to break off one piece of the bar and put this piece in your mouth. You need to suck on the chocolate product until it melts in your mouth, MOS SMI reports.

Therefore, chocolate should be consumed slowly. The melted confection has a much more intense flavor than a whole bar crushed with teeth.

Unfortunately, in the second case, the cocoa beans do not “share” their aroma completely.

Another benefit of eating chocolate slowly is that you reduce the risk of eating too much of the product.

If a person gradually dissolves chocolate pieces, then to achieve a feeling of satiety he will have to “spend” much less sweetness than when chewing.
