Why do SEMI sweet chocolate chips need to be used for peanut butter bars?
They came out ok but I think SWEET/REGULAR chocolate chips would have been better. They have a bit of bitterness to them? Every recipe says semi-sweet chips though?

You could always vary the recipe and use sweet choc chips. A recipe is just a blueprint, which can be varied by taste or availability of ingredients.

Every package of chocolate chips I have purchased said "semi-sweet" on the package. I have never seen a bag of "regular" chocolate chips.

Because the "regular" chocolate actually have very low cocoa content (some have as low as less than 5%) and they are too sweet. Using them would make whatever you are making sickening sweet.

Because most people like semisweet? There is nothing stopping you from using whatever you want now that you know you don't like the semisweet.
