Dark chocolates are far healthier than milk chocolates. Here in the Philippines, more and more people are becoming aware of this fact judging from the increasing brands of dark chocolates that appear on the grocery shelves. Before. I only see two or three brands which are readily available -- Hersheys Dark, Meiji Black, Swiss Delice Noir... But then...one must be very resourceful too to discover that there are more brands in the Philippine market like Cadbury, Lindt, Ghirardeli, etc... though they are a bit pricey... So far I like Lindt dark chocolate... I can tolerate one with 50% to 72% cacao... What about you?

Maybe the reason why it is cheaper than other brand is that it could have a less amount of cacao in it. It doesn't matter as long as it says dark and by saying you love it is good enough :)

My favourite is Heidi Dark chocolate with orange. 75% cocoa. I can`t get enough of it! Dark chocolate is much better than milk chocolate,I agree with you!

You know why dark chocolate is better than milk chocolate? Because dark has more flavonoid content, a compound that has antioxidant properties that we know are beneficial to our body. If you add milk to chocolates it reduces the amount of flavonoids in it.
