I do not recommend feeding chocolate to a psittazen, *however* chocolate manufactured in the USA, by law (fda regulation) has all theobromine (active alkaloid that can kill birds, dogs, & cats;& which causes people to feel "loved") removed. Indeed I don't advocate allowing a companion parrot to snarf chocolate willy-nilly, but even the veterinarians at uc-davis, & others on the leading edge of avian (parrot particularly) medicine acknowlege that (very) small amounts of chocolate pose no real danger. More likely to cause gastric distress would be the lactose present in milk chocolate. Don't feel to stressed over a chocolate chip cookie. Unless they were imported chocolate chips, there is (very) little risk.
