because the red colouring is made of beetroot?, surely they count as part of my five a day? (Clearly my DP is a chocolate genius). :)

Strawberries aren't even real berries. So must be some kind of vegetable.

Er, of course YANBU. Strawberry is a fruit isn't it (although technically I don't think it is, because the seeds are on the outside, but anyway), beetroot is DEFINITELY a vegetable, chocolate comes from beans (vegetable), and sugar (another vegetable).

Plus chocolate is made from milk, which is a recommended source of calcium. What you have there is practically a salad, with cottage cheese.

Trust me, I have managed to apply the "five a day" rule to every food on the planet, and you have no worries with Lindor, they tick every box.

Chocolate is one of your five a day. It's made from beans and an extract of cane, a kind of grass. You have to eat at least 80g for it to count though.
