From either a health or taste perspective?

    Taste. Milka or Lindt. Country of origin: Switzerland, Austria, or Germany.

    I've just got into Green & Blacks - they do a sea salt milk chocolate which satisfies so many different food cravings for me. I've been working it into my macros over the past few days. A square is only 18 calories, it's more the sodium I have to budget for. Delish! :)

    I love the Ghirardelli (spelled that wrong) 72% cocao dark chocolate. It's a little bitter, a little sweet, and one square gets me my fix.

    Lindt, Godiva, Ghirardelli, Cote d'Or... For me it's typically Swiss or Belgian chocolate. Not that Hershey crap.

Made with all natural ingredients, And I can walk to LCC factory at lunch (30 minutes :) and I drive by Snowflake at least twice a day! Notice I said "by"!

    Chocolate made in Britain or Switzerland.

    Even Cadbury chocolate is better in Britain.

    My current, easily obtainable favourite is Lindt.

    Ghirardelli, any of the dark chocolate varieties. I keep a stockpile of it for any time I need a little extra fat to hit my macros or just need a quick sugar fix. Also love the Lindt Lindor Truffles. Sometimes I still have some Reese's minis just for the peanut butter chocolate goodness but for quality I stick to other two.

    (1) Swiss Chocolate
    (2) Better with more cacao and less milk or butter (I love Lindt Excellence 80%, but there are also 90% and 98% which are "dry" ones and you will need to drink after eating them)
    (3) Avoid additional ingredients (walnuts, peanut, almonds, creme...)
    (4) Let melt (do not eat) in your mouth a square of chocolate at once and...enjoy.
    You will feel the difference, and you will feel less the need to eat more and more chocolate.
    Advice from Switzerland ;-) , the country of chocolate.
