Hershey’s Dark. Almost any dark xocalatl.
Oddly, Hershey’s Kisses (and presumably most other milk chocolates) to me taste/smell like rancid butter.
Dove, Godiva, etc., rare exceptions to milk chocolate I actually like.
Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Forget this “fun size” garbage, gimme one the size of a toilet seat, that’s my “fun size”.
Kit-Kats. Yum.

My favorite chocolate is the one made by my ex-wife’s “nonna”.

Anything that doesn’t imply palm oil…
So dark chocolate mostly

I’m a milk chocolate person, any good chocolate brand is fine (Lindt, Toblerone, some dutch brands make very tasty chocolate too) and I especially like the distinct taste of Cote d’Or milk chocolate.

I’d scoff any chocolate that isn’t too dark.
Milky Bars and Caramacs are good, also Cadbury Bournville.
Might sound a bit snob but as i have to be very carefull with sugar now i decided to trade unreasonable quantity of industrial "chocolate" (mostly sugar and palm oil) for low quantity but high quality :
dark "grand crus" from Bonnat (Voiron, France)
"pralinés" from Pascal Caffet (Troyes, France)

Motta has a Bio collection that is good also
I agree completely with this sentiment
If you’re ever in South America, nab yourself a box (or even better, a solid 1kg bar) of these. White, milk or dark, you will NOT regret it.
I haven't bought chocolate in a while, but when I do, I get Hershey's Symphony Bar with Almonds and Toffee Chips.
It's pretty cheap at Walmart.

I forgot to mention KitKat earlier - this brand is one of the more fascinating creations in the chocolate industry. Kitkat is one of the chocolates available across the globe with multiple variants/flavors.
as an example:
There have been more than 300 limited-edition seasonal and regional flavors of Kit Kat chocolate bars produced in Japan since 2000, many exclusive to the country and not produced elsewhere. Nestlé, which operates the Kit Kat brand in Japan, reports that the brand overtook Meiji Chocolate as the top-selling confectionery in Japan from 2012 to 2014. The company's marketing campaign, which partnered with Japan Post to sell the bar in 20,000 post offices, won an award in 2010. The campaig Kit Kats ...
I do like the Hershey’s blocks with Toffee, regular Hershey bar and the LARGE KIT KAT bars only.
Does Kit Kat count as chocolate? I only see it as covered wafers. Still a very tasty treat, but not exactly chocolate IMO.
Anyway, for me it’s not an option. They’re overpriced as balls where I live, and you get far better value for the price with these:
One box costs as little as two Kit-Kat envelopes, and there’s way more than two Kit Kats in there.
Oh, how I wish they made dark-chocolate Kit-Kats…
I do like those chocolate-filled “straws” (wafer-like, but rolled into a tube). Obscenely pricey for the mass, though.
I have had the green matcha tea Kit Kat. It was in an order I got from a Japanese company years ago. It was green colored and way better than a normal Kit Kat.
I normally don’t eat chocolate. I try to stay away from sugar, but Godiva, Lindt, Ghirardelli and a healthy chocolate with probiotics called beyond P xobiotic squares are the ones I eat most. They are bitter and are an acquired taste for sure. lol

edit: Japan is a great market for Kitkat variety, more than 200 flavors in total were introduced to Japanese customers.
