Vegan day 165: Dark Quinoa Organic Chocolate
Vegan 165 days now- my longest record yet and going strong! I don’t think I will ever go back. The best part is… I have chocolate on my side. I never thought I would be the chocolate lover that I have become. You say vegan chocolate and I say nothing… as my senses are already activated- enjoying the magnificent aromas and flavors that the chocolate has to offer. I guess you could say that this is my newest and most proud indulgence to date. Vegan chocolates are widely different too- that’s what makes this whole tasting thing so much fun! It’s the closest thing I have now- it’s comparable to… wine tasting! There should be chocolate tasting events! If they were vegan.. oh my.. I would so be there! If you ever hear of vegan chocolate focus group- suggest me please! And I said focus group… not support group.. lol.. that will come later when I need an intervention!
My most current favorite, as I may have mentioned here or on my Facebook page- is DARK QUINOA ORGANIC CHOCOLATE by Alter Ego. This one says: nutty toasted quinoa LIGHT CRISPY CRUNCH. This is the closest memory I have to eating Nestle Crunch bars as a kid. Have I told you before that I was really all about the candy as a kid and HALLOWEEN was my holiday! I was ready with a big pillow case and I wouldn’t return home until it was 3/4 full. I was on a mission. It wasn’t about the costumes- it was about the candy. The evening would end with a mass trading session with my brothers. Believe it or not I TRADED IN ALL THE CHOCOLATE BACK THEN! I liked real candy type candy like starbursts, skittles, gummies, bubble gum and the likes – of which all are probably not vegan or completely artificial! Those are the ones I stay clear of. In any case- my pillow case today would be full of chocolate if I were to hit the streets.. lol. Luckily, it’s my second busiest day of the year at work so no trick or treating for me! If you want to make my day though- this will bring big smiles.
