Does anyone else out there like dark chocolate better than milk chocolate? Most people I know think I'm weird because I like dark chocolate. They say it's "gross." What's so gross about it?

Milk chocolate is what you eat when you need something basic, like drinking water. Dark chocolate ... now that is art. The very best goes down good with a port or a deep zinfindel or cabernet. Sort of like the best women ... the stupid easy ones are like milk chocolate. Popular and easy. The best ones are more like dark chocolate ... deeply textured, nuanced, fascinating, etc.

I like dark chocolate much better. Milk chocolate is too sweet and doesn't have enough flavor.
Dark chocolate is better for your health because it has more antioxidants due to the higher cocoa content, so be glad that you like it better!
Most people like regular chocolate chip cookie which are made with semi-sweet chocolate chips. So whoever said dark chocolate was gross probably doesn't like chocolate chip cookies?

No. I know a couple of people that like dark chocolate better. The majority of people just prefer sweet over bitter.

I love dark chocolate. Just a little goes a long way. There's nothing "gross" about it, rather quite the opposite. It requires a sophisticated palate and if people think that's "weird".....well, consider what that says about *them*!

I have always liked dark chocolate, even when I was younger.
You are not weird, just built a little differently than the average person, so your taste buds don't like the same type of sweetness.

I like dark chocolate too, but it can be too rich sometimes. Lots of people's taste buds are trained to like refined sugar and there's none of that in good dark chocolate.

No, it's definitely not weird. I like them both. What's weird is people who like "white" chocolate (which isn't even technically chocolate - it's just some kind of flavoured sugar concoction).
