I am gluten and salicylate intolerant and finding things to eat is not easy. This is particularly the case with salicylates.
In the case of chocolate, I have received different advice, some of which says that chocolate is high in salicylates and some that chocolate contains a negligible amount of salicylates.
Is there any definitive opinion?
Does chocolate contain salicylates?

"Cocoa is a low FODMAP food. FODMAP stands for Fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols. Foods high in FODMAPs can cause symptoms of food intolerance, affecting the gastro intestinal system and this can be mistaken for a true IgE food allergy.
Cocoa is a food low in salicylates. Salicylates have the potential to cause gastrointestinal food intolerance symptoms in people who are sensitive to salicylates."
