Chocolate is vegetarian. While chocolate typically contains milk, it is suitable for a vegetarian diet as vegetarians commonly include dairy in their diet. However, for a vegan diet on the other hand, chocolate that contains dairy products would not be suitable. This is because a vegan diet excludes all animal products and by-products. Although, dark chocolate that’s 70% cacao and higher is usually almost always vegan. Dark chocolate is rich in iron, magnesium and antioxidants and therefore is an excellent snack option, providing many health benefits.
