I bought a selection of 9 different kinds of flavored dark chocolate bars for $58.36.  That is 27.5 ounces of chocolate at an average of $2.12 per ounce.  Which is pretty expensive.

Chocolate pairs well with spicy peppers.  I didn&#8217;t like the bacon bar (too gimmicky and flavorless).  Or the black salt caramel bar (the caramel was too liquid).  The Black Pearl and Naga were not strong enough flavor-wise.  The strawberry and mint were okay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For some reason, my local H.E.B. doesn&#8217;t carry a good selection of dark chocolate bars.
