But which ones are true and which aren&#8217;t?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chocolate causes acne<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>False<\/strong>. There&#8217;s no scientific evidence to prove that eating chocolate directly causes acne. Breakouts can be related to various factors (including genetics, dietary habits, hormonal changes, and specific skin conditions of each person).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dark chocolate is the least fattening<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>True.<\/strong> Dark chocolate usually contains less added sugar than other types of chocolate, especially when it has a high cocoa percentage. However, it is an energy-rich food, and its caloric intake also depends on the amount we consume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chocolate is addictive<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>False.<\/strong> Chocolate is not considered an addictive substance. However, it can generate an intense craving for it in situations of emotional stress, as it produces pleasant sensations and well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chocolate spoils in the fridge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>True, but with conditions<\/strong>. Chocolate doesn&#8217;t need to be refrigerated, and it&#8217;s best to avoid it whenever possible. However, if you must store it in a refrigerator due to extreme heat, <a href=\"https:\/\/letschocolaat.com\/en\/blog\/2026\/06\/23\/in-the-summer-should-you-keep-chocolate-in-the-refrigerator\/\">consult this article<\/a> for the best way to do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Let\u2019s Chocolaat, we prepare our chocolate products, bonbons, and truffles in the best conditions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;re sure you&#8217;ve heard different myths about chocolate throughout your life.
