Dark Choc Pomegranate, 32 Oz

I love chocolate -- rich, dark, lucious chocolate, and every autumn my love becomes an obsession. For most of the year, I am able to have a bite of good chocolate candy or a rich chocolate pie or ice cream once a month or so, and it is enough. Not as much as I want, but as much as I need, and I'm satisfied. However, as the days cool and get shorter during the autumn, my craving is impossible for me to withstand, and I have always laid in a big supply of Hersheys and mini M&Ms, etc, for Halloween, and then I "graze" on the leftovers for the next six weeks. How long has it been since you have actually TASTED one of these products, rather than just eaten them remembering "you always liked them." When you taste it, you taste a lot of sweet but very little chocolate, and so I'm not satisfied. So, wanting to find a healthier snack in the hope of appeasing these urges, I tried these. Living in Texas, I ordered these during the first solid "cool spell" of fall, which was a mistake. By the time they were shipped and arrived, we had another streak of near-hundred degree days, and so the product arrived and had melted in shipment and re-congealed into a mostly-amorphous mass after arrival. When I opened it, I was irritated at first, but then I realized this was actually a confirmation that I was dealing with a better grade of chocolate, so I carefully extracted the lump and put it on a cutting board, prying the mass apart with a chef's knife. Under a little pressure, the lump broke apart into smaller lumps, but there were a substantial number of the "beads" of chocolate which came apart, reflecting the original consistency of the product, so I tasted them. The flavor, and the combination of pomegrante and the rich Brookside Dark chocolate was amazing. The aroma as you brought it to your mouth, and the release of the vibrant flavors "sang" to whatever area of my brain craves chocolate. 3 small pieces with a small glass of milk, and I was happy. I love chocolate, and I love pomegranate, but who knew what a synergy there is between these flavors! (I love chocolate covered orange peel, and enjoy chocolate dipped raspberries or strawberries, but they are not very significant compared to these small nuggets of chocolate.) As someone married to a creative cook, I can imagine a cheesecake topped with a vanilla and sourcream topping, with these dotting the top rather than the bland white chocolate chips. Back to my story -- just 3 of these with a little milk, and I was both ecstatic and content. I cannot wait to try 2-3 with a fine cup of dark coffee after a meal. I'm not sure how many callories are in one of these, but my guess is the two or three which satisfies is no more than a "mini" chocolate bar, and the flavor lingers in your mouth for minutes. So, to recap, there should be all of the benefits of flavinoids of dark chocolate and pomegranate, and the flavors are rich enough to really register on the palate and brain. In a reasonable and small quantity, they are a "little taste of heaven", that satisfies my brain without blowing my diet! You should order these if you prefer just a little excellent, flavorful chocolate, to a lot of so-so choclolate. Maybe they'll work for you like they are for me. Just make sure the weather is cool before ordering! Since ordering in hot weather was "on me", five stars for this fine product. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

This is the best dark chocolate. It not only had health benefits but it stays fresh a really long time. The dark rich color makes it even more appealing.

It's a delightful treat for the entire family. It's ideal for sharing with those who have never tasted this dark chocolate treat. This is exactly how I was introduced to this wonderful tasty mouth watering candy. You will definitely enjoy the experience.

when I bought this product from targets or acme in the past you had individual pieces of chocolate. this was all white looking never again

They are great and habit forming

Delicious !

I love these. I am very disappointed that I bought the 32oz bag and before I could buy another bag, they aren’t available! Probably changing the price. It was a better value than the 21 oz.
