Had myself a chocolatey snack after CPK yesterday, thank Mini So for this Doaremon theme Cup Choco snack cone from Lotte.

And it has a collectible sticker inside, 1 of 20 Thinking Skills set, this was also about snackage funny enough, as I see Doraemon gulpin down Yummy Buns, or Dorayakis (dang that english dub on Disney XD)

Chocolate and Vanilla Pudding (High Protein, Aldi)

Short Version:

Pretty tasty but kind of weird mouth feel (5/10)

Long Version:

The Vanilla is textured somewhere between a thick custard and jelly, so has a little bounce back when you scoop into it - unfortunately there isn’t a very strong vanilla flavour so it doesn’t add as much contrast as the chocolate needs. The chocolate is more silken and creamy, definitely more of a dark chocolate flavour. The two textures clash a little inside your mouth which makes it a little tiresome to eat. Also around halfway through the chocolate just gets too overpowering for me personally. However there isn’t that signature artificial protein flavour that sometimes these products can have upon first bite. If I was really craving chocolate it’s got a nice bitterness and not an overwhelming sweetness. It does have a little bit of an aftertaste that sticks around in your mouth but easily remedied with a glass of water or drink, which I recommend anyway as this can get a little sticky and tacky in your mouth and leave an almost dry-like feeling.

I don’t think this would be my first or second choice, but if I really was craving chocolate and wanted to up my protein intake for the day, I’d consider this.

How Chocolate Covered Cacao Beans Can Help Prevent Diabetes

Recent studies from BYU have demonstrated that cacao could help treat or control diabetes naturally.  The researchers have isolated a particular set of compounds in cacao, epicatechin monomers, which they say can help boost insulin production and control blood sugar levels. 

Study author Jeffery Tessem, assistant professor of Nutrition, dietetics and food science at BYU, explained: “What happens is it’s protecting the cells, it’s increasing their ability to deal with oxidative stress. The epicatechin monomers are making the mitochondria in the beta cells stronger, which produces more ATP (a cell’s energy source), which then results in more insulin being released.”

In addition to newly discovered epicatechin monomers, cacao in particular minimally processed cacao, contains high levels of polyphenols which are naturally occurring compounds that have antioxidant properties (which protect the body from oxidative damage). Polyphenols in dark chocolate and cacao may improve how well insulin works in the body. This may help control blood sugar, according to research published in Endocrine Abstracts. Such improved insulin sensitivity may delay, or even prevent, the onset of diabetes.
