What's your favourite sort of chocolate?

[yesdachi]

I said white with nuts (like me) but not some cheep Hershey’s crap I want the good stuff baby!

Also, I recently had a white chocolate Toblerone, I don’t know if Toblerone is considered “good stuff” but I totally liked it. I found it at a hardware store of all places.

Dark Chocolate all the way baby! I also like mint-flavored chocolate products

Dark Chocolate with nuts. Mmmm.

Hey, that's not nice yesdachi. I grew up in Hershey Pennsylvania. You're insulting my hometown. The smell of that "cheep Hershey's crap" used to fill the air in town when I was growing up. It was heavenly. Alas, it is a rare day anymore that the chocolate aroma escapes the factories.

I like dark chocolate and milk chocolate. White chocolate is nice around Easter. My absolute favourite though is the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. If peanut butter and jelly are a match made in heaven, then chocolate is surely PB's mistress.

Milk chocolate for me. White chocolate is good too. I only have dark chocolate occasionally.

I'm encouraged to see that my fellow orgah's have the good taste to vote dark chocolate into the lead. The with or without nuts option was a little confusing since I like it equally either way and could not vote for both, but oh well. White chocolate doesn't count as chocolate AFAIC. My favorite readily-available here in America variety is Lindt 70% dark. I've tried cocoa levels up into the 90's, but I guess I'm not quite as hardcore as I'd like to think. 70% seems just about perfect to me.

sugar is bad for you.

That's kind of like saying that food is bad for you. Your body survives by burning sugars. The fats and proteins you eat must be broken down and converted into simple sugars before they can be used for energy. Sufficient quantity of less useful sugars can be unhealthy, but so can sufficient quantity of water.

Actually sugar does have some nutrients: It is made up purely of Carbohydrate and provides a large energy boost should you be needing one (thats why I always carry a small sachet in my pocket for me to have when I get tired). Any you can buy Chocolate/Alternatives without Sugar (I think ).

Sugar in excess is bad for you.

My sincerest apologies, oh lover of chocolate smells my youthful infatuation with Hershey’s products has been ruined for me by the delicious treats sent to me by relatives from afar.

I love the old “Hey you got chocolate in my peanut butter” commercials but I really don’t like peanut butter .

[Peasant Phill]

Only chocolate of + 50% with a special liking for the 71%.

And I may sound patriotic but I do prefer Belgian chocolate. As far as I know it has the highest amount of natural cacao butter in it.

[Gregoshi]

No problem yesdachi. I was just giving you a hard time. I'm sure the chocolates you got from distant lands were quite excellent. Most of Hershey's stuff is for the common, everyday treat, though they do make some premium chocolates that are quite a step up in taste and creaminess (but hard to find).

Why's my mouth watering now...
