How many chocolate bars would you eat if they didn't make you fat?

(or rot your teeth or anything else negative)

I could get through twenty a day no problem. I don't have issues with getting full or feeling queasy like some people - I'm more your bottomless-pit type of gal. Those people who say they can't manage a whole creme egg without feeling sick are like aliens to me - I'd need to be well into double figures before that happened.

Maybe half a bounty at best. Too sweet and sickly.

CatherineCawood · 12/02/2021 21:13

About 3 in one session then I would get a sugar rush headache. I could do 3 bars about 4 times a day though no fear!

GaryUnicorn · 12/02/2021 21:14

100 packets of crisps! Currently on a low carb diet and haven’t had any since Christmas!

MrsPernicious · 12/02/2021 21:15

Feck me, this is like some sort of pro-anna thread but for binge eaters.

Two years of working with bulimic teenagers left me quite traumatised, thanks for rekindling it Hmm

Afromeg · 12/02/2021 21:16

I feel full easily though, so can't get through more than 3 mini ones at a time without feeling stuffed. But as long as I know I can have them whenever and I'll be fine, that's all I'll have as food whenever I'm hungry.

This might last a weekend if I could afford it and calories weren't an issue. I wish I were exaggerating but I'm not.

A 100g bar of 85-100% dark chocolate a day.

Wotrewelookinat · 12/02/2021 21:24

Only 1 chocolate bar for me before I start feeling queasy. But I could eat (literally) a shed load of salted peanuts in one go.

ufucoffee · 12/02/2021 21:26

I could eat a massive bar of 90% dark chocolate no problem. I've just eaten a 110g big bar of galaxy about half an hour ago. I'm fat.

noego · 12/02/2021 21:26

If you were told about how much deforestation was going on to plant cocoa beans and that the beans are harvested by child labour how many bars a day would you eat?

Blankscreen · 12/02/2021 21:27

I reckon 4-6 normal sized bars a day. I love it!!

MamaDane · 12/02/2021 21:28
  1. I only eat them to get fat.

Jk, I'd eat a warehouse. Which is why I resemble a warehouse 😭

bathorshower · 12/02/2021 21:28

Whoever said it's hard to overeat dark chocolate, I'm afraid it isn't hard enough - I already know I can more than happily demolish 100g/day of dark (70% cocoa) chocolate, as my (substantial) waistline demonstrate, but I try to eat a just a couple of squares. If weight/health etc. were no limit, I think I'd alternate between chocolate and strawberries, with the odd raspberry thrown in. And if we're allowed (chocolate) cake too, then I'd be really happy!

justjuggling · 12/02/2021 21:30

15-20, easy. Plus several multi packs of crisps and a couple of boxes of Jaffa cakes.

TokyoSushi · 12/02/2021 21:31

About 10 a day I reckon!

InsufferableLKIA · 12/02/2021 21:32

I could eat a LOT of mini eggs or Sainsbury’s taste the difference cookies. Or crisps.

But in real life I’ve probably gained a couple of pounds just by reading this thread 🤣

Fairydustrust · 12/02/2021 21:37

Well, I'd just eat one Cadburys Button

Graphista · 12/02/2021 21:45

Meh, chocolate I can take or leave...

Crisps as mentioned? Defo! But even more so - CHEESE! I would eat ALL the cheese! I have to restrict myself I could easily eat quite a lot in one go and I genuinely have to pull myself back. I've had days where I've had cheese all 3 meals and been like "oops" at the end of the day.

Plus it's bloody hard to get hold of decent chocolate these days without spending a fortune!

NoShitHemlock · 12/02/2021 21:45

If I could eat a shit load of chocolate without consequences then I would have pressed "Checkout" on the Hotel Chocolat website 2 weeks ago during their sale instead of just filling my basket with EVERYTHING then realising that if I bought it, I would have to eat it. So I closed the page and came on here instead.

But at least I am in good shape (round is a shape, right?!)

TaraR2020 · 12/02/2021 21:46

A gazillion.

Per day.

Fink · 12/02/2021 21:54

The problem is I love so many foods. So I could easily eat several chocolate bars, but I'd want room for some savoury stuff too. If my only problem was getting full, I still think I could manage a dozen or so chocolate bars in a day (spread over 3 - 4 sittings) and have room for plenty of cheese, pasta, toast with speculoos, fried mushrooms etc.

Titsywoo · 12/02/2021 21:56

1 at the most - I'm not a big chocolate fan (or anything sweet) so 1 is my limit

DianaT1969 · 12/02/2021 21:59

If Kraft/Mondelez hadn't bought Cadbury's and turned it into waxy plasticine, I might have been tempted to eat two a day.
Instead I eat a couple of squares of Lindt dark chocolate sometimes.

Miseryl · 12/02/2021 22:02

Loads. All day long.

Milomonster · 12/02/2021 22:44

Call me username but I don’t get chocolate. I like it but I could get through the year and not have any. Crisps on the other hand...
