French Women Don’t Get Fat (from eating chocolate)

Great article in today’s Oakland Tribune featuring Michael and Jacky Recchiuti of Recchiuti Confections4-cup chocolatier about eating your chocolate and not applying it directly to your hips.

Moderation, eating locally sourced/seasonal food and daily activity are the keys. Lots of common sense ideas about living a balanced life that includes chocolate. The chocolate lifestyle seems to have a lot in common with the Mediterranean diet and the mythos of “French Women Don’t Get Fat.”

Fun article for reviving up your New Year’s resolve to live healthier. It even includes their recipe for a simple, low-calorie hot chocolate.

Bon Appetit & Happy 2012 fellow chocolate enthusiasts!
