"....and chocolate has caffine as we all know

Possibly you're confusing the LDS Church's prohibition on coffee and tea with a blanket prohibition of anything containing caffeine. The fact is, there is no prohibition of caffeine, not even of soft drinks containing caffeine. Mitt could drink a coke and still be Mormon in good standing. Chocolate? Mormons love chocolate, especially hot chocolate.

When I lived in Vegas my LDS neighbors would only drink soda that didn’t have caffine in. We would stock Root Beer and punch for their kids when they came over. I just assumed it was all caffinated drinks. Maybe it was because their kids were Hyper as Hell!

When I was in high school and went to a Mormon church cokes were a big no no.
