So why shouldn't you just eat a Dove bar? Well . . . the chocolate found in candy is PROCESSED chocolate and it is laden with fat, wax, fillers, preservatives and sugar. Xocai contains completely natural, unprocessed chocolate which retains 100% of its antioxidant and nutritional value! In addition Xocai contains no fat, no sugar is high in fiber AND tastes wonderful! This link will download the United Nations Codex standard for chocolate: http://www.caobisco.com/english/pdf/STAN87-EN.pdf As you can see from the table at the top of page 3, the minimum fat content for any kind of chocolate is 12%. For an unsweetened chocolate, it's 50%. A product which does not contain at least this much fat is not chocolate. This link will bring up the section of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations for chocolate: http://frwebgate3.access.gpo.gov/cgi...ion =retrieve Most chocolate products are defined in terms of their % of chocolate liqour. For example, Sec. 163.123 in paragraph (b)(3) says: "Semisweet chocolate or bittersweet chocolate is sweet chocolate that contains not less than 35 percent by weight of chocolate liquor complying with the requirements of Sec. 163.111 and calculated in the same manner as set forth in paragraph (a)(2) of this section." When we go to the definition of chocolate liquor in Sec. 163.111 paragraph (a)(1), we see: "Chocolate liquor contains not less than 50 percent nor more than 60 percent by weight of cacao fat as determined by the method prescribed in Sec. 163.5(b)." Therefore, the minimum fat content of semisweet or bittersweet chocolate is 35% x 50% = 17.5% No matter which set of standards are used, it appears that a product which contains no fat is NOT chocolate. |

Dear Mark, Thank you for defining what chocolate is. You have shown that chocolate by definition contain fat (an ingredients that is bad to our health). Not just that - sugar too. In my excitement, I have over exaggerate (contains no fat, no sugar . It's not that Xocai is incorrectly called "chocolate" and "fat-free, but also "unprocessed". In other words, it is marketed on a river of lies. If the marketers of Xocai are willing to say stuff that is obviously false, why would I assume their stuff is safe to eat? I don't. |

Fat is hardly bad for one's health. Nor is sugar but some of the substitutes for fat and sugar can lead to digestive upset as I have been learning with sucralose sweeten cough drops. Sugar is fine and so are the better class of fats such as cocoa butter as long as moderation is the key to use of these ingredients. In my excitement, I have over exaggerate (contains no fat, no sugar No in your advertising you exaggerate. Advertising in the newsgroup is a forbidden activity and if we bother to complain to the ISP you use you could lose your account. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++ One fluid ounce of Xoçai™ contains only 25 calories, less than one gram of fat, and only two grams of naturally occurring sugar. Xoçai™ has a low glycemic index and three ounces of Xoçai™ is a high source of fiber. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++ Compare to many chocolate product oyt there, Xocai is a healthy chocolate. You can disqualified Xocai as part of the "chocolate" family, but to me (seeing or in this case tasting is believing). My family have being taking this (beverage & nugget) for over three months now and loving them. To us they taste like chocolate and help fulfill our love for chocolate but also help us in maintaining a healthy lifestyle (benefits of chocolate without the guilt). To you they taste like chocolate most likely because you don't have any real experience of tasting good chocolate. A cheaper choice would be Trader Joe's 72% bitter-sweet Pound Plus whichg contains per serving size of one ounce or 36 grams, 200 calories and 120 calories from fat. 13 grams of sugar and 3 grams of protein. And if it seems like two much eat half a serving of good chocolate rather than a full one. I am losing weight including 1/3 to 1/2 ounce of this fine chocolate in my diet and I don't have to worry about any peculiar side effects from stuff that chocolate should not touch. And this product contain no cholesterol, trans fat or sodium. And it is not measured in fluid ounces but by weight. So take your fat reduced anti-chocolate and MLM scheme to some group besides rec.food.chocolate. Please! You can call it "Xocai" but your post is SPAM later bliss -- C O C O A Powered...

Dear All Readers,
Mark, Bobbie, or anyone (including myself) can go on forever with you say, I say. It is not productive and usually become negative as can be seen here in the previous posts. I suggest anyone (who wants to know if Xocai can delivery what it claims) to find out for themselves. Visit MXI Corp. (manufacturer) for a tour of their manufacturing process and expereince first hand. Do you own research. MXI Corp. MXI Corp was established by the Founders of Pure De-lite Products, Inc. Pure De-lite is recognized as one of the leading distributors of low-carb, sugar-free chocolate in the United States. Pure De-lite™ chocolates have achieved top honors and accolades from companies such as the American Culinary Institute, CNN, and Health & Fitness as "The Best Low-Carb, Sugar- Free Chocolates" in the marketplace. For six consecutive years the best selling Pure De-lite™ product has been the antioxidant-rich dark chocolate bar. MXI Corp., 1150 Trademark Drive, Reno, Nevada 89521. 1-866-4MXI-CORP |

Dear Bobbie,
Fat is hardly bad for one's health. Nor is sugar but some of the substitutes for fat and sugar can lead to digestive upset as I have been learning with sucralose sweeten cough drops. Sugar is fine and so are the better class of fats such as cocoa butter as long as moderation is the key to use of these ingredients. Agreed. When I say fat & sugar is bad, I am referring to when in excess - found in many commercial chocolate today. No in your advertising you exaggerate. Advertising in the newsgroup is a forbidden activity and if we bother to complain to the ISP you use you could lose your account. Take it how you like. My intention - to share what I have found, are enjoying and benefiting. To you they taste like chocolate most likely because you don't have any real experience of tasting good chocolate. Do you know what chocolate I have taken? Have you tasted Xocai? Anyway, your statement has no weight whatsoever. As I reply in my other post, if one really are looking for a product that can better one's health and want to know if Xocai is what it claims to be, he or she will need to do the research themselves and also taste it and experience for oneself. I can only provide so much inform. So take your fat reduced anti-chocolate and MLM scheme to some group besides rec.food.chocolate. Please! Yes, Xocai is marketed via MLM. Any product has to be marketed some how or another. You refer to Trader's Joe product. How do I know you are not presenting Trader's Joe? But then again, does that matter if the product works? Anyway, my intention is to share what I found. I have provided the MXI Corp. office and all readers can go direct to them, do not have to go through me. Healthy Chocolate Rocks!! |

To all readers,
Again .... you say, I say. It is not productive and very negative. Real seekers, find out for yourselves. Don't have to believe me. Do you own research. Dear David . . .Say what you want. Does not change the fact that I am healthier (I know it, my daily blood test shows it) and many Xocai's users experience similar health benefits. We are sharing the good news to people everywhere. Some welcome it and some don't (like yourselves). As for MLM, I can see you are not a believer. That's is your choice. Not point discussing MLM as this is not the place/post. |

Negative, as in not good for sales. Negative, as in not letting you get away with your many lies. You claimed the product was fat-free, then reversed yourself, after your lie was exposed. You also claimed the product was unprocessed, which is inconsistent with its other claimed properties. For example, the cacao bean is naturally high in fat. How can the fat be removed without processing? Chocolate itself is made using fermentation, roasting, and grinding processes. There's no such thing as unprocessed chocolate. You claimed the product is chocolate, which is also inconsistent with its other claimed properties. Chocolate is naturally high in fat, must have a minimum level of fat (depending on chocolate type and regulatory compliance body, a dark chocolate requires 35 to 50%). With so many lies being told about this product, a person would have to be crazy to even touch it. |
