Did you know?

My Google alert on coffee tells me today:

Coffees and tea

• Decaffeinated coffee is only 97 per cent free of caffeine.

• While the average iced tea has 47 milligrams per 12 ounce serving, Snapple contains 31.5 milligrams per 16 ounces and Lipton Brisk has only 9 milligrams per 12 ounces.

Sweets

• Dark chocolate has considerably more caffeine than milk chocolate. A 60-gram bar of Hershey's Special Dark has 31 milligrams; the same size milk chocolate bar has 9 milligrams.

I'll be ordering some of that Hershey's stuff - they make those delightful little 'Kisses' shaped like a bell dome and wrapped in silver foil. Scrummy.
