Calorie Count
Smart chocolate concept from L'Agenzia per il Disegno e la Funzione out of Torino, Italy. Each portion is stamped with its corresponding calorie count. If they listed the ingredients on the bar's backside, could they go without designing a wrapper?

I'd hate that. I don't need to see the number of calories when I'm enjoying chocolate.

As a "calorie counter" who has lost over 20kg's this year, but who still eats chocolate most days, this is a brilliant idea!!!!

Great idea! However, for about the past year, I avoid the nutritional information on the back of the chocolate like the plague. I know I should be watching it, but I think I've gotten to the point in my life that I'm not going to be calorie conscious when it comes to treating myself. Sure, I watch what I eat in other aspects, but I will no longer feel guilt-stricken over my chocolate. :o)

p.s. hope all has been well with you. take care!

I love this. Calorie counting is a ridiculous way to lose your self-esteem and get an eating disorder. Everyone's metabolism is different, and if you're getting enough exercise, sleeping right, and keeping away from burgers and Coke, you don't need to fret about calories. Oh yeah, and it has cancer-preventing qualities. I'd only eat the big pieces and leave the little ones for my family!

Excellent, if not depressing idea.

I found a great site for chocolate alfajores! Don't count calories!

alfajor argentino, historia del alfajor, secretos de los alfajores, recetas para hacer alfajores de maicena, de chocolate y cordobés. Hay bastante información de marcas argentinas como Havanna, Balcarce, Milka, Terrabusi y Capitán del Espacio.
