    since we learned that eating chocolate might have lead/contributed to my depression, I just stopped buying and eating it completely, say cold turkey. I don't want to be in worse shape than I already am. :frown:

    It depends on your ability to moderate. If you can't not eat it all, it's better to give it up for a while. You will enjoy it more if you go a few days without and then eat a little bit. Just like pizza or chips or any other treat, it should be an occasional thing. Dark chocolate is very healthy in small amounts. I personally like to buy Lindt Sea Salt Dark Chocolate and eat just four squares (190 calories). It's smooth, tastes good, and the hint of salt can hit another area that sugar cravings can mask, a salt craving.

    I wonder if blueberries have similar antioxidant benefits to dark chocolate...
