If you ever get that "chocolate NOW" craving, try Godiva Choclate Pearls. They are little balls of delight. I get the dark chocolate mint ones for after dinner instead of dessert. They have only a few calories (3) per ball and really satisfy that craving. Another big deal is they are $4 a pack, so you dont overdo it. My pack lasts me a few weeks

I make homemade chocolate syrup and keep some in the fridge. A drizzle in my coffee or a cup of milk handles the chocolate craving pretty well.

this is a good idea. one issue at my house, mainly with my husband is that we might have 100 calorie snack packs, but he just eats the whole box. if it's something expensive, he may not eat all of it, (since we're both kinda cheap)
