I heard that Peanut Butter is good for you. I know there is protein in it but is there any other advantages ? Also..what about dark chocolate..what are the advantages??...Its probably high in sugar but are there advantages?

    They're two great tastes that taste great together. What more could you possible want?

    For peanut butter - there are also healthy fats in it. For the dark chocolate, it has a ton of antioxidants.

    Just pinned a recipe where you take a whole date and split it lengthwise and then put a tsp of natural peanut butter inside the date then you put a piece of good quality dark chocolate on top. Looked delicious and I can't wait to try it. Love the protein in peanut butter and how satisfying just a small bite is. I also love dark chocolate because it really takes care of my chocolate craving without too much sugar. I find that one bite is all I need.

    Peanut butter has healthy fats but I prefer almond butter even more. DARK chocolate has antioxidants. A small piece daily isn't bad for you, but it does have a significant amount of fat

    I love almond butter more too and you can get dark chocolate sweetened with stevia if you don't want sugar. It's quite nice.
