Answers:
I personally like milk chocolate b/c it has a sweeter taste!. Dark is healthier b/c it has more polyphenol antioxidants (same stuff found in green tea) and it contains a lot of catechins!. Catechins are anti-oxidants that prevent cancer and heart disease!. Not sure why dark seems to have a bitter taste, maybe b/c it's not made w/ enough cocoa powder and cocoa butter (believe it or not, c!.bttr is in milk choc)!. Not sure but I'd google it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I like dark choc!. It's more bitter because it has less milk mixed in and, therefore, more cocao!. 100% cocao (ground up cocoa nibs) is very bitter so candy makers smooth it out with milk and sugar!. It's healthier because it has more anti-oxidents in it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Only dark chocolate has antioxidants and the fat it has is a monosaturated fat so it's a good fat!. Dark chocolate has more cacao!. Chocolate is made from cacao!. Cacao by itself is not sweet at all!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I much prefer milk chocolate as i have a very sweet tooth!.

dark is healthy as it has less milk in it!. but it is bitter as it has more cocoa solids, which, in its natural form, is quite bitterWww@FoodAQ@Com
