- U-Report
Interestingly, the team discovered that, accordingly, the fat content could be reduced, rendering the food more health benefits, without detracting from the delightful taste.
"With the understanding of the physical mechanisms that happen as people eat chocolate, we believe that the next generation of chocolate can be developed that offers the feel and sensation of high-fat chocolate yet is a healthier choice. Our research opens the possibility that manufacturers can intelligently design dark chocolate to reduce the overall fat content," Dr. Siavash Soltanahmadi, from the School of Food Science and Nutrition at Leeds and the lead researcher in the study, was cited as saying.
This knowledge could be put to excellent use, enabling the creation of food with better taste, texture, and health benefits.
