My Mother got me hooked on Special Dark back in the 1990's. She'd make oatmeal with raisins for breakfast, add milk, mix, then add 3 or 4 pieces of dark chocolate, depending on the size of the bar. Cover the chocolate with hot oatmeal so it melts. It's healthier for you than milk chocolate, less calories, she ate breakfast daily like this, it was yummy and tasty. Now 35 years later, I eat it daily like this in my oatmeal and my grandchildren love it too! When our Family makes Smores, we use Special Dark, it makes Smores much tastier and not as sweet.
I decided that I needed to lose weight. I went to a diet clinic at a local medical school with such a program. The doctor running this program talked about giving up treats. She recommended dark chocolate as a dessert and said not to chew it. She said to let it melt in your mouth because you will not eat as much if you let it melt. I break off pieces of this bar, which is readily available. I have lost 53 pounds in the last 15 months. I know it is a "mindset" but I still get to eat chocolate.
When it comes to chocolate candy, I only purchase Hershey's. My reason for this is mostly the taste, but as I was eating a square of plain chocolate Hershey's just yesterday. I realized the smoothness and creamyness of Hershey's chocolates is just so delicious, and none can be compared to it! Since I have learned this, why purchase or even taste any other chocolate candy? I AM SPOILED.....RIGHT?

My husband is addicted to this chocolate. It has become rather pricey. When the price originally jumped by roughly $2 /bar, he quit eating it all together. However, as most addicts do, he fell off the wagon.
This was pretty good. I was pleasantly surprised. If you like dark chocolate this one is for you. I also bought a Walmart dark chocolate bar and found that it was just as good except maybe not quite as sweet as the Hershey special dark. I would stick with the Walmart dark chocolate bar because it's a better value.
ive tried several other brands from far %26 wide-through walmart dot com, yet i keep returning to pennsylvania's dark forest. i know there are much higher quality chocolates out there...i have not found them yet. im looking forward to trying some though.
One of the six packs of Reese's was expired on December 2025 and today is April 3rd 2026 Good Friday.. Product should not have been still on shelf plus whoever was doing the order should have checked date and not sent to me ! Expiration Dates should be checked on every item before sending them out to customer! Reeses when not 3 Months passed expiration date is fine. Gave three stars for the one six pack that was not expired! I give zero Stars to the six pack that was expired!🤦 Person who picked order needs to be told to check all dates! Creates headaches for customer and in the long run customer ends up paying for price increases do to WM having to refund.. it's obvious that the stock was not rotated, no items should be still on the shelf 3 months after expiration date!
The chocolate gets 5 Stars! Walmart's price gets 3 Stars! It is higher than Amazon etc. Been buying these 7 a week for a long time over a year but no more until the price comes down to meet competition! I already found them cheaper online from the place that makes them!
The chocolate was already melted both bars
