All my pretentious friends are like "I won't eat any chocolate that's less than 50% cocoa" as if it's some sort of status symbol to like ridiculously dark and bitter chocolate. I don't care! I like my Hershey's, dammit!

What food context? Chocolate is chocolate.  Anyway, milk chocolate for me. I also prefer white chocolate to dark chocolate. (Except with coffee, obviously.) |

I like a dark chocolate with a little hint of orange, but also like some milk chocolate, chocolate bars with nuts, caramel, gel, marzipan, cocos,
but the best are probably not to dark but with a mocca flavour

Dark chocolate, you sissies. But, hey, I eat my couscous with harrissa and my ham with Dijon's mustard, and I listen to free jazz. I must have been desensitived in my most tender youth. Anyway, 75% Cocoa chocolate. |

chocolate has become quite a thing in the U.S. with all the microchocolatiers, like beer was ten years ago I usually like dark, a 60% or so, though my favorite is the Dutch Cocoa which has an earthy quality I like.. and BTW "white chocolate" is, as far as I can tell, not chocolate at all but a mix of sugar, milk and cocoa butter-- closer to divinity. |

evidently the shells of cocoa beans absorb the lead away from the beans themselves, but the lower-qualty chocolate makers don't do a good job of separating bean from shell which is why mainstream chocolate has been found to have elevated lead levels .. so buy quality, me thinks |

I like it dark but a bit sweeter, the one I normally buy is 47% cocoa. If it's got a sweet filling (like caramel or peppermint) I prefer 60-70% cocoa. That said, I've had some very smooth 85% chocolate that you wouldn't know was so rich. =F= ------------- "You must go beyond the limit of the limit of your limits!" - Mr. Doctor "It is our duty as men and women to proceed as though the limits of our abilities do not exist." - Pierre Teilhard de Chardin |

I've always enjoyed the darker side of things. Women, music, artwork and humor are to be included in that sentiment.  I love dark chocolate. That bitter-sweet taste just drives me wild. See what you've done, now? I'm gonna have to go get some expensive candy that I realistically can't afford. I'm too tempted by this point.

I used to be a milk only person, but a friend of mine who eats dark chocolate for health got me into the latter. Milk chocolate is great as a treat, but dark chocolate is truly something to explore and appreciate.

I put milk chocolate in the lead again. I don't like dark chocolate very much. I do like white chocolate.
Proud to live in Belgium, one of the most important chocolate producing countries (like the famous Cote D'Or Chocolate). I do like Swiss Chocolate as well though, and the Dutch Verkade chocolate. Never was much of a Droste man.
These days I often buy Oxfam chocolate though, because of child labor in the cacao industry.

I was in Bruges four weeks ago and I saw the amount of chocolate shops in the centre of the city was simply staggering.... must be the chocolate capital of the world, in terms of shops/habitants.... Of course tourism is responsible of that..... but there is five times more chocolmate shop in Bruges than in Brussels....
I used to przefer milk chocolate for decades, especially the cote d'or milk, but in the 90'sd some of these dark chocolates of specific origins (around 70% chocolate) really grabbed my tastebuds for a while.... Hell I even tried a 99% chocolate >>> that's POWERFUL in the mouth... and one of my fave nowadays is Cote D'Or's Noir de Noir, despite having only 51% chocolate...
I never stopped liking milk chocolate, but I find Galler's normal milk and the ble,nded milk are now both superior to Cote D'Or
I wish they'd start experimenting with higher chocolate content milk choc (highest I've seen is 50%).... Cote D'Or tried the Intense, with a dark layer detween two milk ones, and it came out quite nice.... unfortunately thery've stopped it.
