Godiva Sugar Free Chocolate

I'm really picky about chocolate; Hershey's holds absolutely no appeal for me and as far as I'm concerned, tastes pretty much like wax. So it wasn't completely impossible to be without chocolate when I went low carb.

I'd experimented a little with various sugar free chocolates, but despite the rave reviews various sources gave them, they still seemed pretty dreadful to me.

Then the other night we were out shopping for a Father's Day gift and we saw a Godiva store. Godiva... now there is my weakness as far as chocolate is concerned..Astoundingly, Jay said he had never had Godiva chocolate. So of course, a trip into Godiva became a must. (Its only going to be 1 piece of astronomically high sugar content, after all...right?)

And lo and behold, what was sitting on the counter? Godiva Sugar Free chocolate bars. Even better, they're completely satisfying as sugar free chocolate. (Hell, I'd even call them better than Hershey's non-sugar free chocolate, but that's just me)

They're something like $3.49 for a candy bar sized bar, but its nice to know that I don't need to cringe at the sight of a Godiva store the next time I'm in the mall.
