I know I know It’s been forever! You know how you say “I’ll update tomorrow..I’ll update tomorrow”
Yeah 3 weeks later. It’s finally tomorrow 🙂
Speaking of which. I had my birthday during my three weeks of “where has the time gone”. My first one ever ever ever without a birthday cake. And you all know I love birthday cake. So my sister {and mom} totally rocked the house. My sister made me chocolate covered strawberries. Talk about yummy. like seriously super dark chocolate and strawberries……who can say no.
But then I got to thinking, there has to be more than what Market Basket {cheaper grocery store} has. So I went to my local Hanaford and raided their organic section.
Depending on how you view this..it was either the best thing to happen to me or the worst…
I found dark chocolate that is so amazing it’ll keep even the hardcore chocolate lovers happy.
It’s called Dagoba {visit their website}. I bough the 87% pure..that’s as high as they go. They’ve got some fun flavors that aren’t very paleo so steer clear. That lavender and blueberry is tempting..but don’t do it… seriously… don’t.
Here’s the deal. You look at it and are like “holy moses batman $2.50 per a bar..its tiny!” Yeah I know I had the same reaction. But I fell in love with the packaging, so I had to do it.
but it’s so chocolatley and dense, that it lasts forever. I think one bar has lasted the two of us 3 or 4 times. After that it’s too much chocolate {Trust me there is something as too much}
So I’ll err on the side of caution and say three eats for 2 people: $25.0/3 eats = $0.83 / 2 people = $0.42
under 50 cents… yeah how can you say no??? It’s totally doable. But don’t get it ever freaking week. I’m talking once or twice a month should do you {Unless your making chocolate covered strawberries..in which call me I’ll be right over!}
Word to the wise. When buying said worlds greatest chocolate. I get for $2.50 a bar. Their website sells it for $3.45 big big big difference. Shop around for it. If you type it into google you’ll find some companies that will sell it in bulk and it ends being right around what I’m paying. So do you’re homework! Shop around people, find the best price. Don’t settle for freaking $3.45 a bar. Who would pay that? That’s like..my 1lb bags of onions, carrots, and a 2 heads of garlic…with some money left over.
Alright I Pinky swear promise to not fall off the blog bandwagon again. I love my blog too much to do that.
Great post! We LOVE dark chocolate in our household. I’m a huge fan of Lindt 85% and my husband loves the Species brand dark chocolate with mint. Totally agree with the ‘a small amount goes a long way’ mentality. Nibbling on one square is very satisfying! I know CVS carries Lindt, Godiva, and Ghirardelli brands and every so many weeks one of them is on sale.
