A snack that loves you back... this is delicious. Certified organic 70% cocoa chocolate bar with 4,000mg of maca added. You can taste it in there - but not in a bad way. Those of you who might have gotten a little heavy handed with maca in smoothies etc might know what I'm talking about. Maca has a very distinctive flavor which blends very well with chocolate, but its … [Read more...] about Vega Sequel Macasure Maca Chocolate Bar (40g)

Tonic Scene Raw Organic Vegan Dark Chocolate Sweetened with Coconut Nectar 70% Cacao
I picked up this delicious little bar when I was visiting the San Diego area, it's only 1 ounce, but wow was it GOOD! Ingredients consist of only: cacao butter, cacao powder, and coconut nectar and is gluten free. Really nice uncomplicated and pure chocolate flavor, for a slightly daunting price... small size does help for people who are still struggling with … [Read more...] about Tonic Scene Raw Organic Vegan Dark Chocolate Sweetened with Coconut Nectar 70% Cacao
Endangered Species Chocolate – Organic Health Dark Chocolate with Goji Berries, Pecans and Maca
Not only does it have an adorable looking spider monkey on the wrapper, 10% of the profits of the sale of these chocolate bars go to help endangered species. So there are many reasons to feel good about indulging in this bar. Or rather, HALF of this bar at a time... RIGHT????? Superfood content helps to take the antioxident power of the 70% cacao ethically traded … [Read more...] about Endangered Species Chocolate – Organic Health Dark Chocolate with Goji Berries, Pecans and Maca
NewTree Pink Peppercorn Sexy 73 Percent Cocoa Belgian Chocolate Bar
Don't think for a second when you open this chocolate bar that you're in for an ordinary experience. I opened the wrapper and was greeted with a VERY unfamilar smell... I smelled... PEPPER before I smelled dark chocolate. It was even ever so slightly off putting. It gave me pause... yes me - your intrepid food explorer! But I tasted it and WOW! This is a super unique and … [Read more...] about NewTree Pink Peppercorn Sexy 73 Percent Cocoa Belgian Chocolate Bar
Beyond Organic Fine Italian Chocolate with Probiotics and Omega 3s
Beyond Organic chocolate bars - glad I got a photo of 2 of them together - they disappear so quickly that this is a somewhat rare photo. They come in small boxes of 12, which might sound like a lot to you - this is an illusion. Each bar is 1.2oz or 35g which is both a blessing and a curse - on one hand, if you are a very good friend, you can snap one in half and there's a … [Read more...] about Beyond Organic Fine Italian Chocolate with Probiotics and Omega 3s
Pashen Raw Food Snack Bars – Original and Cacao
I love these. They have a delicious complex flavor and texture that is just fantastic for workshop weekends or times of increased activity. While I'm not a huge fan of grains, one of my old favorites is buckwheat and the main ingredient of these bars just happens to be sprouted organic buckwheat. Again, these are a rare treat in that they are expensive ($4-$6/bar depending … [Read more...] about Pashen Raw Food Snack Bars – Original and Cacao
Dale’s Raw Protein Bar – Mint Chocolate Chip with Cacao Nibs
Confession: I didn't think I'd like the Mint Chocolate Chip bars (scroll to find them) at all. The only reason I ordered them was because of a special offer where a box was included. Having never been a fan of "mint chocolate chip" anything, EVER, I figured I could trade some with one of my clients who also orders Dale's Bars, or just power through them. Wow did THAT … [Read more...] about Dale’s Raw Protein Bar – Mint Chocolate Chip with Cacao Nibs
Dale’s Raw Protein Bar – Vanilla Cashew with Flax Seeds
This particular flavor is special for a few different reasons, the first of which is it happens to be the surprise favorite of myself and several friends. You'd think we'd pick a chocolate flavor as a favorite, but... the Vanilla Cashew with Flax Seeds bar (scroll to find it) is hands down the dark horse winner. It's also pretty astounding in terms of nutritional … [Read more...] about Dale’s Raw Protein Bar – Vanilla Cashew with Flax Seeds
Brutally Honest Beyond Organic Food Product Tasting Notes
OK! Seeing as my Beyond Organic Founder's Pack arrived JUST IN TIME for Thanksgiving - which negated my plans I had had for a "come and try this stuff out" BBQ (which will still happen, but I may need to re-order before then). Let's get started! The Chocolate As you may have seen in the unpacking video, the bars are on the small side (35g) which is actually a … [Read more...] about Brutally Honest Beyond Organic Food Product Tasting Notes
