About a diet, the main cause of acne is not your diet, eating chocolate or drinking too much soda, it's an old wife's tale, BUT a good diet will prevent excess oils in the skin which will clog pores and cause breakouts.
The main cause of acne are your body's hormones, we can't fix those with a change in diet. For me i go to the gym about 5 days a week, and excercise, this helps your metabolism break fatty acids that may affect your hormone production, as well as providing an overall well being for the body and get you nice and fit, a little blood to the old pump is sometimes the best remedy for current health problems as well as future undeveloped ones.

Chocalate does not cause acne.
However oil from chocalate mainly soybean and peanut oil when it comes in contact with your skin makes it sticky for the airborne bacteria that causes acne to stick to your skin.
Advise. Eat it and wash your hands after. The average person touches there face many times a minute without knowing it.

Acne is caused by skins sensitivity to hormones,not diet.
Spots on the other hand can be caused by a reaction to diet.
I believe large amounts of sugar secreted through skin can add to bacterial growth(spots)

There is no connection. But dermatologists suggest to find some sort of connection based on your eating/drinking patterns that may cause more of a breakout. Mainly because different people are sensitive to different things. So, yes there may be a connection for you, but not for everyone.
