Has anyone noticed it's more than mildly sweet? Or are my taste buds 'that'
sensitive now? I rarely eat chocolate unless it's a Luna so maybe my buds
are working better? Anyone eat that once in awhile? Opinions?

    I agree. I'm pretty sure it's just a regular piece of Hershey's dyed darker to market it as a "healthy" option. It's okay to have a piece every once in awhile, but I wouldn't rely on it for your sweet tooth.

    If it isn't labeled, it is likely 70%. I eat Hershey Bliss Dark Chocolate. Yes, it is sweet. I can't handle darker versions. This suits me great while ensuring I don't down a whole bag of milk or white chocolate.

    I adore Hersheys! I agree though, they market it dark to sell more bars.
    Lindt I think is the one I get with 80% cocoa and it is bitter. I suppose
    it's wisest one to buy in the future.

    Not to get too far off subject, but I was looking at the calories difference between milk and dark chocolate and there really is not that much. For Hershey Kisses, it was like 20 calories for 9 pieces, I think.
