Here is why:

Chocolate is a Vegetable

Chocolate is derived from cocoa beans.
Bean = vegetable.
Sugar is derived from either sugar CANE or sugar BEETS.


Both are plants, which places them in the vegetable category. Thus, chocolate is a vegetable.


To go one step further, chocolate candy bars also contain milk, which is dairy. So candy bars are a health food.


Chocolate-covered raisins, cherries, orange slices and strawberries all count as fruit, so eat as many as you want.

actually dont beans have a high source of protein?, then it would be in the meat group... well least on the food pyramid I saw beans in the meat section

 

If we were to assume that a cocoa bean is a vegetable, then that would mean chocolate is a manufactured product with a vegetable as one of its ingredients. A product that contains vegetables does not automatically qualify as a vegetable. If we were to follow this reasoning then peanut butter would also be a vegetable--which it is not.

If one were to classify chocolate in the food pyramid it would be in the 'junk' section.
