"A chocaholic's delight for its wonderful illustrations and excellent text. Without overwhelming the reader with an encyclopedia and academic approach, this is an informative and enjoyable reading experience for anyone who savors chocolate. The authors bring credentials as dietitians to the book, but this is really just fun to read while you learn the benefits and joys of chocolate." --Bookviews.com, November 2008
