At least that what I'm thinking. After all it seems it's one of the few affordable luxuries left these days. Especially if you spring for the dark-chocolate variety (my favorite), but to each his or her own. So, the question will be what type of chocolate? Not all chocolates are created equal to be sure, and price isn't always a determinant factor of quality.
For example at the low end, Mounds and Peanut M & M's are better than average and can be had for between 50 cents and one dollar, depending on where you shop. On the high end, Lindt is a favorite of mine, with Ghiradelli a close second. Their quality is on point, and Ghiradelli is a favorite of mine for baking. For a sample size you'll be shelling out anywhere from 30 cents to 50 cents, again, depending on where you shop. The premium candy bar version of each will run you about $2.50 to $3.50.
The sleeper candy, and the favorite from my youth, is just about anything from Cadbury. I can usually find the premium candy bars on sale for one dollar, and even the regular $1.50 to $2.00 is worth it in my opinion. For me the gem of Cadbury are the Mini-Eggs; candy shell on the outside, pure milk chocolate on the inside. They only come out around Easter, and a sampler pack of about twelve of so, can be had for 50 cents. Too bad I have to wait a few months.
