I love chocolate and find it a great comfort food. Milk chocolate with caramel and toffee are my favs.

Oh, lord, yes!

Because I’m diabetic I only go on a controlled chocolate binge once a month. I sometimes eat dark-no-sugar chocolate.

I like heavy-on-the-milk/cream dark chocolate, but yes on the caramel and goodness on the toffee!

There is an item that I tried one - a frozen turtle-something pie, or cake? I ate the whole thing in under 30 minutes.

Mmm. I’m ordering my groceries just now — search for my chocolate for the month!

I'm one of those weird people who doesn't like chocolate very much. Sometimes in very small doses in something its ok, but otherwise, no.

I like chocolate, dark bitter one. Sometimes with sugared orange or other fruits, but in this case it becomes more of an occasional dessert. Yeah, in my system of values chocolate has a separate niche
Thanks for this!

You people shouldn’t be allowed to breed. So you could live out the remainder of your life with four Hershey’s Kisses?

That’s sick, it’s perverse, it’s...

Sorry folks but i'm going to keep all the chocolates in the cupboard. I can't let you binge on them. It's for your own good.

So you're the one who bites the bunnies ears off? I don't believe you are doing it for our good, you're just stockpiling it for yourself!

I love ALL chocolate. I even had a yoohoo with some cake for desert today.
I love triple chocolate cream cake, German chocolate cake, Devil's Food cakes, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, chocolate pudding, chocolate pie, chocolate ice cream. Sometimes I get a choco craving and have to be surrounded with chocolate.

I got some half off Easter candy on Monday.

I’ve been eating a Reese’s or Cadbury egg, every day since.

I gave up candy for Lent and on Easter, I stole my daughter's Easter basket and ate a whole bag of Hershey's Kisses. Do I feel guilty? No, just a bit bloated. I'm comfortable with who I am.

I had to give it up. I was just too addicted to it. Does anyone find Hershey's like the most addicting. I can have chocolate cake or chocolate chip cookies but Hershey's chocolate candy in any form will have me eating eating the entire bag.

Hershey's is my favorite chocolate, too--better than those fancy brands as far as I am concerned. I've discovered the little sugar-free Hershey bars, especially the ones with nuts in them. They make me feel less guilty, since I'm not totally wrecking my diet.

I wanted chocolate so much I went and got a 2lb 8oz party sized bag of Hershey's miniatures from the pharmacy while I was there to pick up my meds. Overkill? No way! You can bet I'll have it all eaten by the end of the week.

Chocolate may be the ultimate comfort food. The problem with me is a GI doctor diagnosed me with acid reflux. Nothing with caffeine. Anyone know if there is chocolate without caffeine. Not assuming such a food exists. Well one can dream. My upper endoscopy showed low grade precancerous changes in my esophogus so I need watch it.

Yikes!

I couldn't imagine not being able to eat chocolate...

(Also, I didn't know chocolate contained caffeine either.)

I like the chocolate and raspberry candy kind myself. But I like white chocolate more. Have my whole life. It's not as good for you though.

Dark chocolate is healthy for you. That is an excuse to eat it as often and as much of it as you can.
