People who eat small portions every few days are slimmer because it's the composition of calories, not just the number of them, matters for determining their ultimate impact on weight.
Looks like chocolate is full of anti-oxidants too.

You might loose weight eating lots of unsweetened dark chocolate.
I don't care for dark chocolate. I love milk chocolate.

dark chocolate is one of the only indulgence sort of foods i eat.
one dark beer a day is also good for you btw.
plenty of enjoyable things to eat/drink out there and still stay in shape if you control your portions.

I'd have to have some kind of gumball machine that only spit out the amount I was supposed to eat per day, or I'd be the same as those that eat the entire bag.

Correlation does not necessarily equal causation. The actual reason could be something like people who eat small portions of chocolate frequently have better self control when it comes to eating, and therefore are also eating reasonable portions throughout their entire diet.
Unfortunately I'd bet that a lot of people will take away from this article that adding a small Hershey's bar to a high calorie diet will lead to weight loss.
edit: I was reminded of an article about a nutrition professor who lost weight eating mostly twinkies and other hostess snacks, but overall a significantly lower amount of calories than he was used to. Lost 26 pounds in two months.

I live in a house with three women (wife and two daughters) and there's always chocolate around -- and I'm still a fat S.O.B. Myth busted.

Are you a complete dumbass? Compare vanilla yogurt to yogurt with fruit and report back.

Then dont buy it by the bag. Buy a small individual bar every couple of days or whatever. Basically only buy in what you plan to eat. You cant eat what isnt there!

Yup, what people really dont get about healthy eating is that EVERYTHING is ok, as long as you are actually sensible and eat it in moderation. If you like burgers and fries, have it once or twice a month, max. If you love chocolate, have a small portion a couple of times a week or whatever. It's not going to kill you if you eat it like that, it's only when you eat nothing but McDonalds and sweets that you develop a weight problem.
