About 70% CACAO DARK CHOCOLATE WITH QUINOA, QUINOA
70% Cacao Dark Chocolate with Quinoa from SIMPLE TRUTH is an organic dark chocolate bar with the addition of quinoa seeds, offered under The Kroger Co.'s natural and organic store brand. Simple Truth is marketed as Kroger's commitment to simple, recognizable ingredients, free from a defined list of artificial additives. This product builds on the standard 70% cacao formulation by incorporating whole organic quinoa seeds for textural contrast and minor nutritional supplementation.
The ingredient list includes organic chocolate liquor, organic sugar, organic cocoa butter, organic low fat cocoa powder, and organic quinoa, all certified organic as indicated. The quinoa seeds are included as the fifth and final ingredient, contributing a mild crunch to the finished bar. Quinoa is a complete protein source and provides additional fiber, iron, and magnesium relative to plain dark chocolate, though the quantity present in this formulation is limited as a minor ingredient.
Per 100 grams, this bar contains 550 calories, 40 grams of fat, 40 grams of carbohydrates, 7.5 grams of protein, and 10 grams of dietary fiber. The calorie density is high, consistent with dark chocolate products of this cacao percentage. Compared to the standard Simple Truth 70% bar, the carbohydrate content is slightly higher (40g vs 37.5g), likely attributable to the starch content of the quinoa seeds.
Based on the listed ingredients, this product contains no dairy, gluten, soy, or eggs, making it suitable for vegans and those managing several common food allergies, subject to manufacturing cross-contact verification. The organic certification across all ingredients aligns with preferences for non-GMO and pesticide-reduced agricultural practices. It is appropriate for consumers seeking a minimally processed, high-cacao dark chocolate with added textural interest.
