Diabetologist 's  Response
Dear sir i can understand your concern
in my opinion its not at all advisable to have chocolate which is out of expire.
After experi the food will change its organic nature to form certain toxins and cause gastric problems .
regular chocolates are not good for diabetics as they push up your sugars very fast.
But a little dark chocolate which contain very little sugar can be taken.
