CHOCOLATE THAT YOU AND YOUR PET

CAN ENJOY, SAFELY

Most of us love chocolate. Unfortunately, some of us are not allowed to eat chocolate because of the

caffeine content. There may be a solution at hand, but please check with your doctor if it applies to you.
The solution lies in carob chocolate.

Share chocolate!
I don't think so. . .

he chocolate we’re used to eating
is made from cocoa, which is
naturally bitter and has lots of sugar,
Tfat and additives. Carob chocolate is
made from the naturally sweet legumes of
the carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua).

The carob is a flowering evergreen tree or
shrub. It is native to the Mediterranean,
but also grows in other warm climates. It
appeared in South Africa in 1949 and has
been here ever since.
