White Chocolate and Milk Chocolate contain a ton of sugar.

Dark Chocolate is made up primarly of cocoa. It’s much healthier.

As a general rule, the darker the better.

Don’t be fooled. REAL dark is made at least by 80% of cocoa. If it contains less than 80%, then it’s not actually dark chocolate.

If you are used to eating a lot of sugar in your diet, you might be horrified and shocked by the taste of dark chocolate. Don’t go to extremes like 99% immediatly. You need to get used to the bitter taste.

    I bought someone I fancied 99% chocolate as a joke. After a year or so, we got together. I opened the cupboard one day and saw it there, unopened. It came upon me to eat it :)

    I love dark chocolate and until that point I thought the darker the better. Since then, I realised that I top out around 85%.
