Espresso chocolate chips obtained.

They are delicious.

Hahaha nowhere on the package does it say how *much* caffeine is in them, but it is definitely a non-zero amount.

I can tell I haven’t had too many because a nap still sounds like a great idea.

Wow - I was so curious about the lack of caffeine labeling that I had to look it up, and I found several dubious things. Caffeine doesn't have to be listed in nutrition facts, because it's not a nutrient (okay, fair), but it does have to be listed in the ingredients unless it's naturally occurring. So if they add caffeine, they have to list it as an ingredient, which you probably knew. You probably also knew, having a bag yourself, that caffeine is not listed as an ingredient in espresso chocolate chips, but "roasted coffee" is. I guess caffeine is considered naturally occurring in coffee?!
