Lindt 99% Chocolate
Which London Drugs (where in BC?) did you find the 85%?
By the way, a good way to estimate the actual carbs is to assume that 15% (100 minus 85) is added sugars, so 15% of a bar BY WEIGHT will be sugar carbs. 13g NET carb in 100g unsweetened chocolate plus another 15 would be 100g of 85% chocolate with a total of 28g NET carb. If it was a total weight of 50g for the whole bar, you'd have about 14g per bar (how many squares in your bar?).
Quote:
Unsweetened Chocolate, for 100g is 522 Calories; 55g Fat (76.3% calories from fat); 10g Protein; 28g Carbohydrate; 15g Dietary Fiber; 0mg Cholesterol; 14mg Sodium. Exchanges: 2 Grain(Starch); 1/2 Lean Meat; 11 Fat.

PS: I was in Urban Fare, in Vancouver, for the first time yesterday. They've got the quality Lindt at 70% cocoa mass and at (check this) 99%! Which means 1 g of added carbohydrate over and above the natural carbs in pure cocoa... in a 50g bar, that means all of 0.5g added sugar ... and yes, I tried it and one CAN'T taste the sugar but it makes one heck of a quality alternative to Baker's Unsweetened Chocolate from the grocery store, though somewhat more expensive.
