The main reason I avoid these is that this brand and many other dark chocolate brands apparently contain large amounts of toxic metals like lead and cadmium. No idea if it's true or not.
Then why did you repeat it?
I knew there was truth to it, but I was too lazy to post sources of studies, etc. and wanted to raise my concerns for anyone else to do their own research on, if they cared to. Thankfully, someone else gave a better response than I did regarding the topic, so I'll give that a read to refresh my memory.
