I find I like dark chocolate more and more. The higher end brands make delicious 70% cocoa with a silky texture.

I actually really like all three flavours, so uch so that I often don't want anything else mixing in it. There's something rather delicious about the bitter taste of dark chocolate.

Dark chocolate is much healthier, although if to say which one is my favourite, hands up for white one!

Dark chocolate is the best. I find that milk chocolate is overly sweet and that dark chocolate allows you to taste the hint of bitterness that gives it a rich chocolate flavor. Personally, I prefer 75% or above dark chocolate. In addition, dark chocolate has many more health benefits, mainly due to the antioxidants in chocolate, than milk chocolate does. To get these benefits one must consume at least 60% chocolate as milk chocolate is more sugar than actual cocoa.

I love dark chocolate. Milk chocolate is too sweet sometimes. I don't have a sweet tooth.

I love love love dark chocolare. And dark chocolate with sea salt is the best. White chocolate isn't even worth eating in my opinion.

I love milk chocolate the most. I wouldn't mind eating white chocolate, but sometimes it tastes weird. As for dark chocolate, it's too bitter for me.

I love dark chocolate and enjoy making my own chocolates with cocoa, coconut oil, raw honey and salt. I like sea or HimaIayan salt. I always notice if I forgot the salt! Peanut butter and anything that will add a bit of texture is often added. I also prefer dark chocolate when making things like chocolate covered fruits and chocolate dipped sweet potato chips. I like milk chocolate too but will always go for dark chocolate first. Especially for the health benefits. I really do not understand white chocolate. Doesn't taste anything like chocolate to me!

I don't mind dark chocolate. But it really depends on the brand. Cadbury's Bourneville is the best dark chocolate I have tried thus far.

All kinds of chocolate are fine for me since I am a chocolate lover except I don't like chocolate with walnuts in it.

Chocolate is awesome, especially pure chocolate. Dark chocolate is great, it has just the right amount of bitterness to be in a class by itself.
