For some reason I've always thought white chocolate tasted better... sweet somehow or something. I figured white chocolate was just a marketing gimmick, but now i'm wondering if there's actually a difference besides the color.

white chocolate only contains cocoa butter, sugar, vanilla and some other junk.

70% cocoa dark chocolate destroys all competition. Milk or vegetable oil based "chocolate" is a pale comparison to the real thing.

Bleh.
Dark chocolate sucks.

And like other's said, white chocolate isn't actually chocolate. No cocoa powder, so of course it tastes much different.

Total myth.

I don't want to get into this conversation but, no, it's not a myth.. Google it - there are plenty of statistics out there....
that's what i'm saying.

Dark chocolate will add a couple of inches to my waistline over white chocolate?
It's a myth ;)

Hmm...I think I've heard that dark chocolate is generally the best for you as far as chocolates go. And I think milk was the worst, making white sorta in between.

But I might be smoking crack, so who knows.
