How It Works
The toxic compound is theobromine. White chocolate has ~35mg/oz, milk chocolate ~64mg/oz, dark chocolate 150-400mg/oz, and baking chocolate up to 450mg/oz. Total theobromine ÷ body weight gives mg/kg. GI symptoms begin at ~20mg/kg. Cardiac symptoms above 40-50mg/kg. Potentially lethal above 100mg/kg.
