Dietary fat is always bad for you. Not true.
Naturally occurring fats are okay for you; however, they can be high in caloric count, so you may still need to limit them.
However, it gets tricky because you cannot just look at total fat content on a food label; it matters where the fat comes from.
Highly processed foods, including fast foods, are known for high levels of trans fats, which are not healthy.
One recommendation is to skip the seed\vegtable oils and substitute them with coconut oil, butter, ghee, or olive oil for cooking.
A little fat usually goes a long way; you do not need much, but your body does need some. The recommendation is 20-35% of your daily intake.
Must be from natural sources.

@SlippingAway Exactly. Diabetes isn't a result of eating carbs, so much as the wrong kind of carbs.

Chocolate. Your body needs sugar.

@Hireath It doesn't need processed sugars; you can get all the sugar you need from fruits, and you can, if not diabetic, use honey and other natural sugars. However, most chocolate bars contain either processed white sugar or corn syrup.
Some chocolate uses stevia, a better choice, and dark is best.
A little sugar for many people will not cause catastrophic problems, but for diabetic 2 it is very important to limit sugar.
Some people eat no refined sugars at all, and their body does fine without it.
