EAT THIS with Lianne

Chocolate is called the “food of the gods!”

That means it MUST be good for you…right?!

Not if you listen to all the chatter on how you shouldn’t eat too much…or…only the dark stuff…or…never the white stuff….

One study touts it as ‘so good for your body and brain’ only to be shot down by the media.

Today on Eat this with Lianne, we get the truth! From a real life Chocolatier! Who even says chocolate can help you lose weight! So before you chuck out that bar of godly-ness….listen up…and let’s learn about chocolate.

So what if you DO decide to grab something in a “Package”? How do you know just how good or how bad that product is for your health?

Anytime you pick up a package, bag, can, or bar…it has NUTRITION LABEL on it…

Do you know what all those numbers, letters, and ingredients mean? To be honest, It can be rather confusing.

So, on this episode of Eat This with Lianne, we’ll dive into the explanation and dissection of the nutrition label. What you should, could, and will see each time you turn that package around to read the label.

Listen in, and learn along with us.

Have you noticed just how much the dairy isle has changed over the years? Gone are the days of just bags and the odd carton of the cow based material…

It's not a new fad but it is a very interesting, and super growing industry.

Maybe you have already tried them, or maybe a plant based milk is a staple in your diet…either way, we are joined by our first Food Scientist to talk Plant Based Milks.

Are they all made the same? Is there a difference from one carton to another? How good are they really?

…and most important…which one tastes best in my coffee?
