Gnosis Chocolate

Sooo....I may have splurged a bit today. I was going to just get a smoothie and raw sandwich (instead of bread it had lettuce) at Zerbo's but while I was waiting I got distracted. They had all kinds of fun new raw food products (and a few of my favorites were sadly missing) that I had to try out! I figured it was research for my readers ;) That's how I justified spending the extra money. I also bought a book. I'll blog about that stuff later. I wanted a whole blog just for Gnosis Chocolate because I loved it so much! It was around $7 and uhhh, I ate the whole thing in one day. So, I will admit for the quality of the product $7 isn't bad...but when you are broke, it's kind of tough! BUT that being said, it was SOO good. I have tried raw chocolate bars and have not been impressed before. In fact, most of them I end up mashing up and blending with other stuff because I can't stand the taste of raw cacao. This was different though. It was really, really, really good! It's in the refrigerated section at Zerbo's, and if you can't make it to Livonia, MI you can order it online at: http://gnosischocolate.squarespace.com/


OH, and to me the packaging and how the food is put together is important. I really like the box it comes in, and it's all natural. 10% of the profits go to the Fruit Tree Planting Foundation (www.FTPF.org) and it has fun information on the ingredients.


This is definitely an indulgence I will be treating myself to more often ;)

Alison, Vanessa is a great girl and smart business woman, I have met her and we both went to the same nutrition school in New York. I love her chocolate too, and am so glad that Zerbos carries it so we can buy it in Michigan.
