It depends on what you’re looking for! Dark chocolate over 70% has less sugar and more antioxidants, which is great for a rich, intense flavor. If you’re managing diabetes, diabetic chocolate can be a better option since it’s made with sugar substitutes.
I have tried 'diabetic chocolate' once, and was very quick to give the remainder of the bar away. A higher percentage cocoa chocolate bar doesn't have more carbs than those diabetic chocolate bars but they sure taste a lot better!
I got the clue with @lovinglife 's reply, I take it M&S is a supermarket?
Of course it's available for me, I'll just buy in bulk when visiting the UK in October once I find an M&S store!

Most so-called diabetic chocolate is made by replacing the sugar with sorbitol. Unfortunately, that too can raise blood glucose and, as mentioned above, has a laxative effect. It's expensive and, on top of that, it doesn't taste too good, IMO, so not recommended.

There are M&S food shops even in towns that do not have the large Marks & Spencer department stores. However, the large M&S stores (those that sell clothes, furniture, etc.) have a bigger selection of foods. All is good quality.
