I know! I draw the limit at 99 percent though as 100 percent is very bitter.

I've yet to try the 100%, could imagine it would be quite over-powering.

With a little bit of research - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wall's_(ice_cream) It's a subsidiary of Unilever, the washing detergent people! lol

I found that since giving up any sweets, cakes, biscuit and ice creams last year, I enjoy the taste of 100% cocoa chocolate and do not find it bitter. I also don't need to eat more than a couple of squares. I still struggle with my addiction to crisps but have managed to kept the carbs low. I have though, discovered the delights of pork scratchings! There are six packs of pork scratchings in pound stretcher I found which are lower in salt than other brands.
