I have certainly eaten my share of chocolate over the years but I always
felt a little off after, but then I realized that it was the milk that
was doing it to me. Then I discovered dark chocolate. It is a little
strange that on the rare occasion that I eat milk chocolate I keep
eating it, even though I inevitably suffer for it, but I find that a
small amount of dark chocolate is very satisfying. Once in a while I buy
a large dark chocolate bar and have one square every day or two, and a
bar lasts for weeks.
