What's your favorite quality/taste dark chocolate? I have eaten, pre-MFP, a dark Hershey bar with blueberries and nuts that was dee-lish. Does anyone want to share their faves?

    Dark chocolate, mmm! There's this certain brand at Savemart where its dark chocolate and a bit of chili. The bitterness combined with a little kick at the end is to die for!

    I hate Hershey. I love lindt and godiva, or trader joe's belgian chocolate. Their 100 calories chocolate bars are perfect for me right now. Both the milk and the dark are delicious.

    Lindt makes a dark chocolate and coconut bar. They sell them at Cost Plus World Market. $4 for 1 bar, but boy is it good.

    Theo is my favorite brand right now, though I haven't tried many. Divine makes some flavored ones, if you like that. I've seen them at World Market.
    I like to buy the recommended brands on this list

    Working for a chocolate factory, I am rather prejudice :blushing: HOWEVER, at work, we make a dark chocolate (55% cacao) crispy fruit bark - its one of the few chocolate items we made that I ate. It has dried blueberries, cranberries, crisp rice and apricots all in dark chocolate with the essence of oranges. :love: In December, I was diagnosed as gluten and dairy intolerant and can no longer have it - its the one thing we make that I miss. I don't eat any other chocolate since, after working with it for so long, it truly stinks to me and I can't stomach it :noway:

    Godiva is definitely great but a little pricy so its a real treat (p.s.) if you sign up for their rewards program you get a free piece every month. No purchase necessary, just go into the boutique and they can scan your card and give you a free piece out of the case. Of course this only works if you live near a store.
    Since Godiva is out of my price range for regular chocolate consumption, I also like dove and a brand I have found @ Aldi called choceur. 5 bars is something like $2 and they are divided like a Hershey's bar into smaller squares 3 squares (1/4 bar) is 55 Cal and 1-3 squares is usually enough to kill a sweets craving. One pack will last me for a month or more, this is my go to chocolate. Its a really smooth Dark chocolate. Not sure what the % cacao is.

    I think a lot of the 'big' names taste a bit cheap (sorry, I know some of you have mentioned Hershey, Lindt, Dove, etc)... but there are some absolutely fantastic imports and smaller brands. The best advice is experiment. My wife and I have a collection of various bars, and rarely end up getting the same bar twice simply because there is so much out there.

    Either Green & Black's or Endangered Species.... both melt in your mouth and go very high in percentage, and the higher the better!

    Lindt 85% or Green & Black's 85%

    Both are GMO free.

    Loves me some GMO free treats.
