My Bitter Valentine: 2019 Gifts For The Broken-Hearted

Dark chocolate is good for your heart, bitter chocolate is good for your soul. It doesn't get much darker than 90 percent cacao, but if you pay close attention, underneath the bitterness, you'll find some lovely fruitiness and a soft richness. Mixed messages, a bitter end, or a flame still smoldering? You can decide what it means.

Dark chocolate vs. milk chocolate: Here’s which one is healthier, once and for all

Now, you're probably not going to find a suitable dark chocolate option hanging out by the checkout at regular grocery stores—Hershey's "dark chocolate" bar, for instance, has sugar as its first ingredient and contains multiple different types of milk—but there are plenty of brands that have both the great taste and benefits you're craving. To get started, look for options from Go Raw, Alter Eco, Hu Kitchen, and Theo. You have every excuse to indulge in a few pieces every night—it's for your health, after all.

The 5 Better-for-You Sweets a Nutritionist Buys on Amazon

I build a bit of dark chocolate into my eating routine nearly every day, and this is my go-to. While this bar is dark, I don’t find it to be bitter. And rather than being waxy, it magically melts on the tongue into rich, creamy chocolate-y goodness. Organic and fair trade, it's made with just cacao beans, raw cane sugar, cocoa butter, and fleur de sel. Half the bar (or five squares) provides 230 calories, 17 grams of fat, and 19 grams of carbs (4 as fiber, 12 from sugar), 3 grams of protein, and third of your daily iron target. I enjoy just a few squares, mindfully, as part of a daily “me time” ritual.
