Dark chocolate is a term used for chocolate products with no milk. Chocolate is produced from Cacao, which is grown in many countries, mainly with tropical climate. South Americas, Africa, Asia has several countries growing cacao. These are natural products and any Heavy metal content would be due to the soil in which the cacao trees are growing. This content would vary from origin and batch. To making a sweeping & general statement that dark chocolate contains toxic levels of heavy metals is wrong. more
