Can we eat chocolate during fast?

Answer 1

no

Answer 2

Technically a fast is no food or drinks, except for water. Chocolate can fall under either category (food or drink). During a liquid fast, it can be drunk, most likely in the form of chocolate milk or Hot Chocolate.

Answer 3

It would depend on why and how you are fasting and what is in the chocolate.

• For a total fast you wouldn't eat any chocolate or anything else.
• For a non-milk fast, you wouldn't eat Milk Chocolate or other chocolates with dairy ingredients.
• If you were fasting to avoid carbohydrates, you wouldn't eat chocolate unless it had no sugar, milk or any other source of sweetener in it.
• If you were fasting to avoid stimulants, you would avoid chocolate since it has Xanthine alkaloids such as caffeine and theobromine and other stimulants.
