Scientists have made chocolate with less fat and calories by infusing it with diet soda!

A group of chemists have successfully replaced half the fat found in chocolate via liquid infusion. The liquid can be fruit juice, vitamin C water, or even diet soda. Best of all, the chocolate still retains similar qualities and taste as regular chocolate.
However, the liquid you infuse the chocolate with can make the taste vary. For example, using fruit juices make the chocolate taste like a hybrid between traditional chocolate and chocolate-juice confectionary, says the lead researcher.

They chemists hope that the food industry will take their research and start making lower-fat treats that don’t sacrifice good flavor for less calories.
