    @Woodbine Cocoa beans are full of goodness, micronutrients, antioxidants and other benefits. When processed into chocolate or other products they lose a lot of the benefits. Dark chocolate often has a higher cocoa content, and I believe less processing.

    Natural or non alkalized cocoa powder offers the best of these benefits, but without the extra processing and sugars it has a very different taste and often described as bitter.

    I'm surprised that dark chocolate is beating white chocolate! People often look at me strangely when I say I genuinely prefer dark chocolate...

    White chocolate
    I don't really like chocolate on it's own, find it too 'rich', prefer to have just a few choc chips in something or a thin coating on an ice cream.  Though if I was to have a couple of lumps of solid chocolate, it would be white for me.

    Milk chocolate
    White chocolate apparently is too fattening as there's a process to make it white which makes it more fattening.
    dark chocolate tastes to bitter for me. 
    Milk chocolate is just right.

    Can't remember who makes them, but you get a box of different grades of chocolate according to the % of cocoa in the chocolate. Got some at Christmas.

    Dark Chocolate is the best, it's official.  :D

    White chocolate
    White chocolate is made from cocoa butter instead of cocoa solids.  Both come from the same cocoa bean though.  :)

    If everyone sent me their chocolate, I could 'treat', sorry I meant to say 'test' the chocolate and send the empty wrapping / boxes etc back. I will not charge for this service. What I do for humanity.  :)
