This list ranks six chocolate products that sit at the bottom of Osana's scores, from lowest to highest. Three are tied at 18, two share 22, and one reaches 32. All six carry a Nutri-Score of E and a NOVA 4 processing rating, so they are the lowest-scoring in this comparison rather than products to fear.

The score blends nutrition and processing. It reflects sugar and saturated fat per 100 g, plus how processed a product is. It cannot tell you about portion size, how often you eat it, or your personal needs. A seasonal peanut butter candy eaten once in October fits a diet differently than a daily habit.

When comparing chocolate, check three cues on the Nutrition Facts label: added sugars, saturated fat, and serving size. In this group, sugar ranges from about 34 g to 56 g per 100 g. Peanut-based picks add some protein, but not enough to change the overall picture.

How to choose better chocolate

A short checklist for your next grocery run:

  • Compare added sugars per serving, not front-of-pack claims.
  • Look for a shorter ingredient list with cocoa listed first.
  • Check saturated fat alongside serving size.
  • Consider smaller portions or darker chocolate if you want a regular treat.

These products can still be an occasional treat. For context on processing, see are protein bars ultra processed, or browse best rated candy products for higher-scoring swaps. To compare chocolate bars in the aisle, scan them with Osana and check the details before you buy.

Choose cleaner swaps before they land in your cart.

Use Osana at Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Target, Costco, or Walmart to compare labels faster and shop with more confidence.
