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

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
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
Taza Chocolate Mexicano Chipotle Chocolate Discs Organic 70% Cacao
My second recent trip to the greater Boston area included a second trip to the Taza chocolate factory. This incredible and delicious chocolate has a very unique almost "grainy" texture due to the fact that it is stone ground in a very interesting traditional Mexican way. The factory itself is housed in an old school warehouse in a fairly industrial area of Somerville. We … [Read more...] about Taza Chocolate Mexicano Chipotle Chocolate Discs Organic 70% Cacao

Ostrim Beef & Ostrich Snack Sticks
I've actually enjoyed Ostrim for a while now - having discovered it at a Planet Smoothie about 3 years ago. Thankfully, you can order it by the box online from places like GNC.com at a nice handy discount. If you want to just try one or two, they're available at the retail stores too. I've purchased boxes of it fairly regularly as an alternative to the usual collection of … [Read more...] about Ostrim Beef & Ostrich Snack Sticks
Kiehl’s Formula 133 Hair Conditioner and Grooming Aid
After a recent visit to a NYC Equinox gym to visit some fellow RKC and RKC Level 2 Instructors (and to generally check out the digs), I found this incredible conditioner in the locker room. AH GEEZ it's IN EVERY SHOWER! I fell in love with it, and what it did with my chemically and otherwise damaged (I make the joke that I have Alice Cooper hair), abused, and "oh that's why … [Read more...] about Kiehl’s Formula 133 Hair Conditioner and Grooming Aid
Green & Black’s Organic Bittersweet Dark Chocolate Bar, Currant and Hazelnut
This bar has such a great balance to it—even though its only 60% cacao (I normally like things VERY VERY dark)—the crunch of the hazelnuts, and tangy currant bits work together incredibly well. Organic and Fair Trade. Definitely getting this again. … [Read more...] about Green & Black’s Organic Bittersweet Dark Chocolate Bar, Currant and Hazelnut
