Chocolate contains caffeine and theobromine, between 0.3% (milk chocolate) and 0.7% (bittersweet), mainly in the form of caffein. Caffeine, theobromine, and theophylline (in tea) are chemical compounds with closely related structures and similar pharmacological properties. They are all members of the class of compounds known as methylxanthines. They occur in many common food plants, such as coffee, tea, cocoa, mate (a South American drink), and cola.

All real tea contains caffeine unless the tea has been artificially decaffeinated. (The only exception to this rule is Japanese kokicha, made from stems of the tea plant. Its caffeine content is negligible.) Tea also contains a related chemical called theobromine, which has similar (slightly milder) effects on the body. The amount of caffeine in a cup of tea varies tremendously, depending on the variety of tea and the brewing time. See similar questions...

Many people don't realize that cocoa and therefore chocolate products deliver many naturally occurring compounds similar to other foods in a healthy, plant-based diet. Some of these beneficial compounds are minerals such as calcium, potassium, magnesium and copper. Much of the current research is focused on another group of compounds called flavanols. Because of their molecular structure, many compounds in the flavanol family can act as antioxidants. See similar questions...

Each cup of chocolate milk has about 2 to 7 mg of caffeine, the same amount that's found in one cup of decaffeinated coffee. This tiny amount of caffeine in chocolate milk is too small to affect most children. Colas, on the other hand, may contain up to 10 times more caffeine than chocolate milk. See similar questions...

Actually the amounts found in a chocolate bar can be closer to a cup of decaffeinated coffee. For example, a 1.55-oz NESTL?? CRUNCH? bar has less than 12 mg. of caffeine, whereas a 6-oz cup of brewed coffee has between 65 and 150 mg. of caffeine. See similar questions...

The yerba powder is carefully processed and measured especially because it is a fundamental component to achieve a balanced flavor. Many consumers view it as something undesirable, but it is actually indispensable to obtain rich, frothy, lasting mates. Normally, the powder settles at the bottom of the package; therefore, it is important to follow these steps to prevent the bombilla (sipping tube) from clogging: Cover the mouth of the gourd with the palm of your hand, tilt it and shake softly.

Good question! It's not that the non-organically-grown is not vegan, but there are ethical issues around the production of chocolate and cocoa. For more about this, see the article by John Robbins here. Organic is not necessarily fair-trade (see the article), but, if you can't find fair-trade chocolate and cocoa, organic at least does not endanger the workers with pesticides. Alot of us use chocolate chips for for cooking and baking. Cocoa butter is vegan. See similar questions...
