Saw her scarf two or three Baby Ruths while we were in the field.


you realize most milk chocolate in the candy bars on shelves has almost no chocolate solids in it....its mostly chocolate flavored sugar.....milk chocolate is mostly cocoa butter with very lil cocoa solids.....real baking chocolate and real dark chocolate has lots of cocoa solids which is where the theobromine is.....that is what kills dogs.....and if you eat enough of it it will kill you too....
