Dark chocolate fan padt 3 decades. Gotta have dark chocolate every day.

The best comes from the island country of Grenada. Picked it up there first hand. Yum!

Real … pure dark chocolate doesn’t melt in your hand… unlike milk chocolate.

I used to wonder how it was that the ancient Aztecs and European colonizers could appreciate chocolate, since it is very bitter at high purity / cocoa levels like they surely consumed back then (initially at least). But now after trying 95% and 100% dark chocolate over a period of time, it’s grown on me. I now think 70% is way too sweet, and I can’t even eat it anymore.

Like everything, tastes adapt.
