Healthy Eating

actually chocolate milk is quite a bit better than some treats. It is great for replacing electrolytes. many athletes found it better than Gatorade.

It makes more sense to just "water" it down with milk if they're getting too much sugar.

A treat should be a treat, not something you get every day. But that's just me - I'll always be a mom.

"Health experts." Yeah, right....

To make chocolate milk less unhealthy health Experts say to add peanut skins and coffee grounds!
They didn't say whether to use the food processor or not.
So when the grand kids want chocolate milk try it.

That is just nasty! I think they just wanted to see if anybody was dumb enough to actually do it.

I think someone's pulling a fast one.

Sounds awful. Growing up we didn't have chocolate milk in the house, but we had Ovaltine and drank it all the time in our milk.

thats nasty. chocolate milk really isnt all that unhealthy (as far as milk is concerned) its just some extra sugar. Id bet dollars to donuts they have worse things all the time

I'm not a doctor or an expert but I'm pretty sure if you give chocolate milk with peanut skins in it to a kid with a peanut allergy it's not a healthy or a wise decision.

To make chocolate milk healthier, leave out the chocolate and sugar.
I used to be a Big Brother. All the kids drank chocolate milk at school. Most of them were overweight. I started drinking plain milk. Pretty soon some other kids went to palin milk. Then we in the majority.
