If you are diabetic (as I am, type II) you can have chocolate once in a while. In fact, I prefer to keep a few "fun size*" bars in my duffel bag, which I'll use instead of glucose tabs, if my BS crashes to the point of getting the shakes.
Chocolate is actually good for you, if used properly. Ask your Doctor for verification, but simple sugars really don't impact you that badly... the real enemy is, and always has been carbs. Stay away from the flour, the rice, the breads and cookies. That's the stuff that pushes you up into the high range and keeps you there!
Oh, and I didn't vote for Snickers. My one true love in candy bars is the Clark Bar. (Similar to a butterfinger, but the core is denser, a bit sticker, and more flavorful. IMHO)
*I have no idea why they would think a candy bar the size of my thumb should be called "fun size" ... to me, that should be called "sad size." Gimme something as big, or bigger than my cock, thank you very much... now THAT's "fun size!"
Simple sugars, as all sugars, are carbs. They all turn into glucose once inside the body.
