Dark Chocolate...
anyone else find themselves totally addicted to it?

I mean, I used to not eat chocolate, then it was a little milk chocolate, now I can't stand milk chocolate and think it tastes too sweet, and I can't get enough dark chocolate.

I don't know if I believe this sex and chocolate thing:

but damned if there isn't something about se, er chocolate that really gets me going, especially dark chocolate (has more cocoa) :9

;)

3. What percentage cocoa solid content do you eat?
I tried 70% and it was absolutely putrid. I'll stick to milk.

5. i've had some that was over 70% and it was pretty stout
but i ate it and wanted more, more, more.

usually i just go for the easy hershey's special dark

the over 70% was some dark belgian chocolate

:9

milk chocolate i used to like, but it just tastes too sweet.

next thing i'll be eating baking chocolate or something :puke: then i'll be ready for the asylum, not that i'm not now.

7. I don't like chocolate
unless it's in a baked good or a milkshake. Dark or milk, it's so rich that it makes me feel ill.

25. I go through a bag of Dove Promises Dark Chocolate every few days
Even though it's mass produced, it's actually quite good.

26. Actually ...
I am never without a large bar of dark chocolate in the house. I suffer from migraines, and it's a natural remedy! The doctor told me to use it years ago, and it really does work.

(It's also a good excuse to eat more of the stuff.)

49. ah, but hate
and love are not opposites

apathy or detachment is the opposite of love

so hate and love are closely related :D

32. I'm with you that milk tastes way too sweet
I didn't used to care for dark but with better quality dark chocolates being more readily available it's really opened up a whole new world. Milk chocolate now seems cloying. Bonus is that my kids won't eat dark so I get it all to myself mwahahaha
