Which one is your favorite? White Chocolate, Dark Chocolate or Milk Chocolate?!

Mmmmmm chocolate.

I actually do really enjoy white chocolate. Mostly for the cookies and creme bars  Milk chocolate has always been my #1. I'm learning to like dark chocolate but I don't like how chalky it can taste.

kpearse99

I hate white chocolate!  In fact, I call white chocolate, Fake Chocolate! 

@inthewoods23 I'm like you though in the fact that I love milk chocolate but as I get older I am learning to have a great love for dark chocolate!

@kpearse99 I should have added this gif to my comment

I am all about dark chocolate! Now when I have milk chocolate it seems to sweet for me.

Dark chocolate is my favorite (65% or more), followed by milk chocolate. I can't eat white chocolate. I think it's gross.

kadeephd

Dark chocolate all the way!  Lindt 70% bars are my favorite.  Milk is OK and white is not good (unless it's of the chip variety in a cookie).

Umm, all the chocolate??  I love the taste of dark but can only eat a little bit of it at a time. White and milk chocolate I can eat by the handful. The only chocolate I dislike is chocolate with nuts in it!! 🤢

kpearse99

@_orchid_ mmmmmmm I love nuts in my chocolate!! Yum!!  Do you like any kind of nuts, in general? Almonds, walnuts....etc?

bbrahmbhatt

My favorite is dark, 72% or darker with sea salt. I will usually not turn away milk chocolate, but I agree with many of you that white chocolate is not real chocolate and I don't like it (unless it is in a cookie).

@kpearse99 I like nuts on their own and my #1 quick snack to grab is a handful of almonds. They just disrupt the chocolate vibe for me LOL

I'm all about the milk chocolate 100%. I find dark chocolate too bitter for me and I dont like white chocolate either. 

inthewoods23

@_orchid_ I typically don't like nuts in my chocolate either. Sometimes it's fine. I hate nuts added to chocolate chip cookies or brownies! Totally ruins them for me.

I’m with @ashaislurking on this one. Paired with a nice glass of🍷 please. And I love love love a bit of sea salt like @bbrahmbhatt. 

However I did use to prefer milk chocolate in my younger years so I can’t call myself a purist. 

inthewoods23

I'm a fan of orange with my chocolate. Chocolate oranges anyone?

I'm fine with a little bit of salt in my chocolate, but I wouldn't eat too much of it at a time. Orange though? I eat too much of that in one sitting.

misshelen86

Ohh I love milk chocolate. But I have to agree with @acleverusername, dark chocolate paired with wine is the best!!

kpearse99

I'll pretty much pair anything with wine! 

_orchid_

@inthewoods23 yes to the chocolate! I can also get down with sea salt, and caramel. I'm always kind of relieved when I go somewhere and there are nuts baked into cookies or brownies bc then I can control myself 😂

kvh22

@inthewoods23 ugh those chocolate oranges are disgusting 🤢😂

I'm also with @bbrahmbhatt - 72% dark, sea salt preferred, goes perfectly with red wine. Also will only tolerate white chocolate in a cookie. My brother made white chocolate rosemary cookies like 5 years ago or something (he never bakes, it was very random) and they were delicious. I bake exclusively with dark chocolate. Milk chocolate was great as a kid but I can't stand it now.

I do not discriminate against any chocolate...I’d say dark is my favorite, but I had to acquire the taste over time! I’ll never pass up milk chocolate though! I do like white chocolate, even though it isn’t real chocolate...but I would choose dark or milk above it any day!  

Who am I kidding, I wouldn’t even leave 1 piece! 

inthewoods23

Has anyone tried that new gold chocolate that Hershey came out with last year?

kpearse99

@inthewoods23 Yes, I did - and I thought it was gross!!! But I do like their oreos and cream chocolate bars (even though I hate white chocolate!)

bows22

Ditto to everything @bluetickgal said! Sums it up perfectly!

I do really love a chocolate bar with nuts in it. Like when people in the office bring in candy bars that their kids are selling. I’ll pick one with almonds usually if they have it!

Fruit and chocolate is a no-go (unless it’s white chocolate). I can’t say I’ve ever had chocolate oranges though so I guess I shouldn’t knock before I try!

bows22

@inthewoods23 yes! It didn’t live up to my expectations though 

kpearse99

@bows22 Me too with those fundraiser bars!!! I'll ALWAYS pick on with nuts in it (although I do look for ones with peanut butter in it first!)  I do love chocolate covered strawberries and chocolate covered pineapple, which DH does not like, so that means more for me!

inthewoods23

I said I don't care for nuts in my chocolate, but I totally forgot about Mr. Goodbars! Peanuts are yummy in chocolate. Not a fan so much when it's almonds, pecans, walnuts, etc.

gingermama29

All the chocolate. If I had to rank it, it would go milk, white, dark. But I love it all

runningoncookies

I love ALL chocolate. White chocolate is my last choice always, as is super super dark chocolate, but I won’t say no to them if that’s all there is! Also def a fan of nuts in my chocolate but only once in a while. Unless it’s a Ferrero Rocher...then I will eat 10 in one sitting every damn time lol!

And @inthewoods23 I am NOT with you today chocolate and orange is gross!!! Give me literally any other flavor with chocolate: mint, nut butter, raspberry, coconut, whatever! I love it. But I just cannot do chocolate and orange. 

kpearse99

@runningoncookies OMG Ferrero Rocher is the greatest thing! I could eat an entire box of them in one sitting!

asf0613

dark is #1 forever, milk is good, and i don't mind white but won't go for it first.  definitely no nuts and def no ferrero!!
