Ah, a fellow chocolate lover! One indulgence I really like is Green & Black's Organic Dark Chocolate. You can get it in the states--if you can find it..its worth every penny (it will probably cost you $3.00 for a bar)!!!!

Yes, I'm a HUGE fan of gourmet chocolate. HAS to be dark, as dark as possible. LOVE it.

I'll look for the Green & Black's. We have a lot of places in town that might carry it so I'll go hunting! I'm a big supporter of organic and sustainable farming, so finding an organic chocolate bar will be just the ticket for me.

I like Green & Black's--they were the first company in the UK to ever carry a product that was fair trade (mayan gold chocolate). I also like ethical consumerism and believe people really have the power to change the way big businesses work. An example of this is the organic movement that's happened over here in London the last few years. People have really taken an interest in good food and so the stores have catered to it. Fair trade, recycling and bio-degradable packaging eventually followed as well as the fact that the price has gone WAY down for organic food (its only a few pennies more!). The store I shop at "Tesco's" actually gives Clubcard 'green points' (like Safeway) for bringing your own bags instead of using the stores' which I think is absolutely great. I wish the states were more consistent about taking an interest in stuff like this--it seems like it depends where you live to how much they care.

The thing I like about organic food is the fact it tastes a lot stronger so you need less--its this way with the chocolate I've recommended. Its 70% dark chocolate which as you know for this reason will have more 'healthful' properties.

Sorry for the length of this--I like talking about decent stuff like the environment and organic food!
