What do you eat when you crave chocolate?

Most of the time with chocolate, it isn't the cacao that's bad for you so much as all the things they add to it. (Gluten, etc.) If you like dark chocolate, there are lots of good varieties out there that cut down on the additives. I tend to splurge on Theo (a local Seattle company with organic, fair trade cacao). Their dark chocolate varieties are strong enough that I usually only need one square at a time, so a bar can last me a while. Also, it's kind of spendy so it's not something I'm going to buy very often.0

I really like the Emerald's Cocoa Roast Almonds in Dark Chocolate. A cap full is 150 calories but you are getting good protein from the almonds along with your chocolate fix.
I also do dark chocolate kisses. 1 or 2 of them are so yummy especially if you let them just slowly melt in your mouth. . . .now I am craving them. . . .dang it!0 -
Agree with just eat it... I also buy the individually wrapped dark chocolate... weight watchers also has some chocolate out there. :drinker:0

Sugar free Fisherman's Friend. I defy anyone to want to eat chocolate after one of those0

Chocolate. I buy the dark chocolate squares - and keep them in the freezer in a container. That way, I take one out and if I want another it would be a pain to go get another one.0

It seems like the one thing I cannot get away from is chocolate. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the sugar, but I very specifically crave chocolate. Is there something else I can eat that will at least curb my craving but won't use up all my calories?
I eat chocolate. Really. Dark chocolate FTW. It's good for you and rich in taste enough to make me not feel the need to eat the whole bar. I love Ghirardelli 60% or 72% and it's under 60 calories a square and only a few grams of fat. Plus, all the antioxidants!0 -
I snag some low-carb Simply Light 45% Dark Chocolate with almonds from Trader Joe's. It is delicious, satisfying, and filling! Also pretty affordable, so hopefully you have a TJ's near you so you can try it out. The great thing is that this is a no sugar (it has sugar alcohols, though) option!0

I buy high cacao content chocolate bars and then store them in a jar broken into squares. Sweet Riot is a good brand, with each little square being about 10 calories. I also eat (carefully measured!) chocolate covered almonds.0

I eat the chocolate, my dilema is in moderation. A bite of dark choco & a nut at the same time is full of flavorable and not too much guilt!0

Greek yogurt with coco powder and peanut butter mixed in. Sometimes I add some vanilla protein powder and dark chocolate chips also.0
