    This stuff is heavenly; 1 serving (1tbsp)= 10 calories; 3g carbs, .5g fat, 1g protein, and 2g of fiber

    Mix it in oatmeal and you have chocolate oatmeal
    Mix it in protein shakes for chocolate flavor
    Use it for protein cake or other homemade protein recipes
    Use it for homemade cookies, pancakes, etc.

    Use it in just about anything


    Carries micronutrients as well. Here's an article about benefits of unsweetened cocoa if you care: http://healthyeating.sfgate.com/benefits-unsweetened-cocoa-powder-5662.html

    Just thought I'd make you aware if you weren't. Go pick this up on your next grocery run and you'll thank me

    starting in 1894, females were born knowing about this.

    Hersheys makes me want to smash my face on something. So many other, better types of chocolate and chocolate powder.
    True, but are they as cheap if you are on a broke person budget?
    If so, make me aware and I will be grateful

    Did you see the post around MFP a few days ago where someone posted about eating spoonfuls of chocolate powder straight? I mean

    Hershey is gross. I don't understand how people can eat that stuff.

    I kind of wish I thought chocolate was gross, would really help.

    I can't figure out what to do with it. It's gross. I have to dump a thousand lbs of sugar into ti to make it taste even remotely half-way decent. So, I have a whole thing of it just sitting there for years. It's absolutely disgusting. It's probably more gross tasting than nutella, if that's even possible.

    nope

    Oh my....I just had the cocoa powder in my oatmeal. Would have used splenda but we ran out so it was ol fashion sugar this morning. Wow was this yummy. Felt like eating dessert and that being said could definitely be eaten as that as well.

    I've baked with this all my life, also made hot chocolate and chocolate syrup for ice cream with it. I can't believe unsweetened cocoa powder has been a secret from anyone.

    By the way, Ghirardelli's is better.

    I keep a container in my cabinet. I sweeten whatever I use it in with agave or honey. It's fine by itself in homemade chocolate peanut butter.

    Yeah there are better powders, but then you have to be more selective what you use the chocolate in.
