Default Frequent, Watery Vomiting

My cat for a few days now has been vomiting a few times a day, and of
course manages to always get it onto furniture, rugs, etc, even though
most of the house is wood floors....argh!

On a more serious note, though, the vomit is not "regular"
vomiting...he usually produces a little pool of watery vomit that is
dark in color, almost chocolatey in tone. There is a little bit of
food matter in it, but for the most part it is mainly liquidy. It is
not bloody, however. About the time he started doing this we were
giving him a new food from his regular food, and one that was
considerably darker in color, so we assumed he just did not like that
food in his stomach over the regular brand...but since we have
switched back to the regular stuff, and yet it is still dark and he is
still vomiting.

Does anyone have any idea why a cat would vomit mostly watery,
chocolate colored stuff? Any tips on soothing his tummy? I know in
the end a trip to the vet is the best idea, but money is SO tight
now...I'm hoping to be able to soothe/resolve this myself if possible.
Does this style of vomiting sound like something really serious, or
just a stomach flu, irritation, etc? Thank you for your help!
