Hi all! Can someone recommend some dark chocolate that comes in small pieces/moderation for satisfying the sweet tooth in a "healthy" way :-) thanks!

    Blue Diamond Dark Chocolate Almonds... they aren't DIPPED in chocolate... more like they're 'dusted' in a chocolate powder... and they're amazing. :)

    mm dark chocolate covered raisins or mini peppermint patties

    Sometime I keep the mini peppermint patties around because I NEED a little chocolate and so a couple of those little ones will do the trick. I found dark chocolate covered pomegranate seeds the other day those were pretty good (hard to eat just a little bit though)

    Yesterday, I had the Hershey's Dark Chocolate Bar, which was only 180 calories. Since I burned 300 calories, I was able to eat that and have a protein shake, to boot.

    They sell them in packs of individual portions now too. They are 50 calories for a nice sized square. I have a mint dark chocolate one in my diary for later :)

    In the nut Isle, Planters has come out with dark chocolate and cinnamon dusted almonds.. for 25 almonds its 120 calories.... I HIGHLY recommend them! they are soooo friggin good!

    almonds curb your hunger, and the chocolate satisfies that chocolate need!

    I love Hageland's dark chocolate bars. The squares are a little bigger, but you could always break it in half. I am actually eating their 71% Costa Rica dark chocolate right now! One square of that is 80 calories and it takes me FOREVER to eat it so it's like a 1 hour snack.

    I saw these at Walmart last night and was debating on trying them. I didn't know if they would be good. Now that I have a confirmation on their tastiness, I am going to have to try them :smile:

    They make one with sea salt too and it is really good. Have to remember to only eat a little piece at a time.

    I like the small, individually wrapped squares from World Market. Sea salt dark chocolate is my fave.

    THESE are fabulous! I don't think I could do "real" chocolate - even small pieces can be eaten in bulk! The almonds give me the sweet I need without the desire to eat the whole package.

    I eat the Lindt 90%............I know, but it is soooo decadent you can't eat very much at a time, very satisfying. A portion is 4 squares, which is half a bar, but I usually only eat half a portion at a time, so the bar lasts a while.
