677.0. "carrob v.s. Chocklate?" by NODEX::BRASS () Fri Jul 12 1991 20:19

Hi,
	My wife and I sometimes try to fool ourselves or our sweet teeth by 
buying carrob coated raisins as opposed to choclate stuff. Now we are both
on diets more or less, actually we are trying to lose weight, without being 
on a strict diet.Anyway what I was wondering is what is the story behind carrob?
Is it really better for us then choclate, what is the difference other then the
taste?
		Thanks

    Last time I looked, carob was equivalent in calories to chocolate. FOr
    those of us who are allergic to chocolate, carob is great.

    Andy, you are forgetting the Diet Rules.
    
    Diet Rule #173: Anything you buy in a health-food store has no
    calories.
