Curtis -

The 99% products from this place are superb:

I bookmarked it, but I think we are using a different measure -
truffles are usually not 99% chocolate bean. The 82% is the actual
chocolate content. I couldn't find it on their site and you may be
right - at that price I'll have to wait a bit. Maybe I'll call...

I should have said 82% cocoa content, which could be the difference...

These I'll order. There is one that the health food place sells that
looks like the second one. Its only 88% and way too pricey for a small
square to justify. These are reasonable...

You have more courage than I.

I must be missing something - what's courageous about eating
chocolate?

99% is in the danger zone for all but the most hard core.

How is that calculated? It doesn't seem possible that all these other
ingredients are included but only make up 1% of the total.

Ingredients
Cane Sugar, Cocoas, Bourbon Vanilla Pod, Orange Blossom, Spices. 99%
Cocoa.

Geez, the only proper chocolate is almost all chocolate with enough
sweetener and filler to take it just out of the completely bitter
category. There is some 82% stuff on the market that is incredible -
and the last bad culinary habit I am permitted. If anyone can up that
percentage, let me know where I can buy it - and no, baking chocolate
is not what I am looking for...

Curtis, Valrhona makes an excellent 85% bar that isn't bitter. I'd post a link,
but their site is under construction (from the looks of it, they hired a Flash guy
who doesn't understand "moderation").

People over 12 that eat cookies with Reese's Pieces where there should
be chocolate chips are to be suspected, identified and turned in to
the authorities. Simple beatings administered with a baseball bat are
an acceptable alternative if you are short on time.

Carl's question was really simple for me to answer, mostly because I don't care
for Reece's. The chocolate isn't very good, nor is the peanut butter. Having said
that, I will admit that I like York mint patties well enough to buy one a couple
times a year. And those things bear only a passing resemblance to "food."
