    I usually buy whatever is on sale between Camino, Green and Blacks, and Endangered Species, they all make one around 80%. and Theo makes a really great chocolate mint bar. I buy them because they are fair trade and organic, which eases my conscience, and the extra cost makes it feel like a luxury so I eat it slower ;) Just tried another brand, Alter Ego, It was 60% and had puffed quinoa crisps. Very delicious, I've always been a sucker for crispy chocolate. I eat a 100-150 calorie serving of whatever bar I have each day, usually at the end of the day so I can look forward to it! or when I just can't wait anymore!

    I like lindt, vosges, chuao...for starters. I like the 99% cacao lindt because it's low in calories, but helps me meet my fat macro. So much fun to be adding chocolate in my day to help me hit my goals. The bacon vosges is pretty awesome. And the calorie count on chuao is great for some reason, I also like their maple/bacon, and potato chip/chocolate bar.

    I'm insanely curious about the 99%. I'm working my way up in percentage. I'm finishing up a Ghiradelli 86% and I have a Lindt 90% in my fridge, ready to go.

    Tonight I threw a square into my protein shake and it was delicious! :grin:

    It's intense. There's like...a warning label on it. Basically so people don't complain to them, thinking they are about to bite into a snickers or something. I like it because it's low in calorie and just kind of interesting. It's nice dipped in a creamy coffee, or tea, or with raspberries/fruit.

    Is there any other kind of chocolate? I LOVE dark! For my diet "treat" I buy dark chocolate or I think they are called semi sweet chocolate chips that you are supposed to make cookies with. I freeze them and then count out some to "snack" on. They are good frozen and low in calories. They are less than a hundred calories if you eat 30 of them. I eat ANY dark though and there are a lot of choices out there. I just check calories and count out what I can have. That is what I love about My Fitness Pal. You don`t have to deny yourself things you love. Just remember moderation and calorie count are the keys.

    Well, I'm both excited and intrigued. I'll have to look around and see if I can actually find it before ordering it from Lindt's website.

    My heart is torn between:
    -Endangered Species' Pumpkin Spice dark chocolate bar
    -Vosges Coconut Ash & Banana dark chocolate bar
    I have tried many others I adore as well, but these two hold top place so far!
