cocoa processed with alkali

Dietitian note

Cocoa contains compounds that can relax the lower esophageal sphincter, making it easier for stomach acid to reflux. It also stimulates the production of stomach acid, further contributing to heartburn and GERD symptoms. Additionally, cocoa's caffeine and theobromine content can exacerbate reflux by increasing stomach acidity and relaxing the LES.

Description

Thick chocolate-fudge topping pours smoothly and solidifies into a crisp shell on cold desserts, adding rich cocoa flavor and crunchy texture; commonly used on ice cream, sundaes, milkshakes, and fruit. Reviewers frequently note fast hardening and strong chocolate taste, praising convenience while occasionally reporting bottle clogging issues and excess sweetness.
