  • Cocoa Powder?

    I found Hershy's cocoa powder in Costco today...

    http://www.hersheys.com/recipes/products/info/cocoa.asp

    First one in the list. Here is the Nutrition Facts listed on the box,

    =========================
    Serving Size 1tbsp (5g)
    Calories 20, Calories from Fat 5
    Total Fat 0.5g
    Saturated Fat 0g
    Trans Fat 0g
    Cholestrerol 0mg
    Sodium 0mg
    Total Carbohydrate 3g
    Dietary Fiber 1g
    Sugars 0g
    Protein 1g
    =========================

    My question here is whether this is suitable for Rung1 or Rung2 of OWL. If not, then which rung it should be suitable for if at all?

    Thanks

    Re: Cocoa Powder?

    As cocoa powder is made from a seed, use of it in quantity would be on the nuts/seeds rung of OWL.
    Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
    Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

      Thanks Elizellen. The box didn't say it is caffeine free as well, which worries me too. I would wait then till I get to the right rung and see..
