Cocoa grows as a pod, containing beans. Those beans are dried then ground to produce cocoa, and the fat extracted is the cocoa fat (cocoa butter, nothing to do with normal butter, but still high in saturated fat).
White chocolate is made using the fat, plus vanilla, milk and sugar. Not much value at all beside lots of calories.
The nutrition value of chocolate is in the cocoa - the dark part, containing minerals (iron, magnesium, phosphorus) and contains anti-oxidants like red wine... it is said it is a heart protector.
Milk chocolate is already too low in these, and too high in calories to be a valid choice.

I don't know which college it was but I saw a story on the news that the sports players drinking chocolate milk after a workout did better than the ones drinking Gatorade. but the white milk did not have the same effect. hope this helps.

White chocolate contains no cocoa solids which are what posess the antioxidant qualities in dark or milk chocolate. The best chocolate for you is dark chocolate, then milk, then white.

Milk Chocolate
To make white chocolate, they use buttermilk and milk solids as additional ingredients to the chocolate. Where as just plain milk chocolate doesn't have those added ingredients.

white chocolate is not actually chocolate. milk chocolate has little of the health benefits just a lot of fat. Dark chocolate in moderation has health benefits. the darker the better. and still has fat so be sure it is in moderation.

in fact, i prefer dark chocolate. but i think milk chocolate is better than white chocolate and it will be better if you check the nutrition facts before you buy it.

I like chocolate milk myself. But I would prefer strawberry quick. I love that stuff.

I'd say milk as it contains more cocoa which I'm sure has something slightly healthy in it. But the amount is probably negligible anyway.

MILK CHOCOLATE is definitely better for me, especially when I drink it nice and hot on cold, snowy, wintry days.
