Eager to get my dark chocolate eating on, I tried one piece and let’s just say I couldn’t swallow it fast enough. The 73% dark chocolate was enjoyable as it was not too sweet, but the ginger chips were another story. Although small, the ginger chips were placed all over the chocolate and each bite let you know the ginger was present. The ginger flavor was rather strong. Unable to eat another piece, I decided to give it a rest for awhile and told myself to try it again later.

Fast forward to the next day, I decided to give it another go. This time, I ate a couple pieces, and slowly it began to grow on me. Not enough for me to love the Dark Chocolate with Ginger bar, but enough for me to be able to eat it. I even became a little brave and sucked on a piece till all the chocolate was gone and I was left with just the ginger chips. It was mortifying, to say the least. So the trick to eating this chocolate is to chew fast and not let the ginger linger too long in your mouth. Overall, I rate this chocolate a two out of five. For under $2 at Fresh & Easy, it certainly isn’t for everyone but it won’t hurt your wallet to try. The taste may somewhat grow on you if you give it a chance. Otherwise, this is a must try for the ginger lovers.
