SafeDoes dark chocolate contain lactose?
It depends. Dark chocolate made only of cocoa, cocoa butter and sugar contains no milk. A great many bars, however, carry a "may contain traces of milk" warning, because they are produced on lines shared with milk chocolate, and some add butterfat to dark chocolate too.
Eating out
A high cocoa percentage guarantees nothing on its own: what counts is the ingredient list.
Recipes change from one producer to the next and from one kitchen to the next: this is how something is usually made, not what is in the plate in front of you. The only answer that holds for your plate is the ingredient list on the packet, or the person who cooked it.
And how did it go at the restaurant?
Knowing what is in a dish is half the answer. The other half is what actually happened to the people who ate it in a specific place — and that is what SafeBelly collects: no stars, just how it went afterwards.
