Possibly the best Vegan chocolates EVER!!!!!!

[Guest guest]

I think I may have found the best vegan chocolates (if they are truly

vegan) - I got them at Whole Foods - it's their 365 organic brand

chocolate truffles:) They have no milk/milk byproducts, are made from

organic cocoa butter, organic cocoa mass, organic vegetable oil (copra

oil), organic cocoa powder, organic cane sugar, and use soy lecithin as

an emulsifier. However, there is a warning on the box that they are

made in a plant that also uses milk & nuts in other products. Can I get

a second opinion on this - they are tooooo good to be true!!!

This sounds great Debra... Whole Foods is not here but good to

know when i am in Cali. There is Euophria Chocolate that has

vegan alternatives and uses good syrups too. It's nice to see the

the whole foods movement has following enough to support

chem-free foods. I wish we had food purity laws like they do in

Germany. American food often contains more additives and

byproducts. Even common brands like Rittersport are far

superior to brands like Hersheys that are mostly sugar with

some wax added to the mix. Am glad u found something better

but remember that it can still rot your teeth and add pounds!

Hey David* - That's beauty of these - they're so rich, I can't eat many

at one time, and they're so decadent, I want to savor them:) I hope you

can find them - I know they're on the website - not sure if they do

online orders, but I did also see a site of them that was based in

Canada!

 

I agree 210% on the differences of German and American foods - I lived

in Germany for three years in the early 80's (I did NOT want to come

back to the States). But, there is a German store here in the DFW area

- and they do have an online store: www.germandeli.com have a look

around - very nice people:)

Thanks for the link Deb.... will check it out. I lived in a village near

Heidelburg in '97-98 and have been back a couple of times

when tbackpacking it in Europe. I love it too and would stay if i

commanded the language. I hope to check out the UK on my

next jaunt since i havent done it yet. I will research where i can

get veggie stuff though i found it easier than most of the states.

I used to get fresh whole grain bread covered in pumpkin seeds

at the neighborhood Aldi at a " gute und billig " price. Besides the

bread and chocolate, you are in luck if embibing in bier or wine

since many villages have their own stock. Also, i found the

imports from France and Italy to be inexpensive compared to US

though we have a food outlet with cheaper prices.

I am always impressed with how things are done in various

countries of the EU. America is coming along thanks to people

that take an active role in changing their habits. We have a long

way to go but am glad their is awareness.

If one lives on the US west coast [Cali to BC] there are more

opportunites to get whole foods without much effort and perhaps

more " health foods " than most places. I had some difficulty when

visiting family in Texas since the only healthfood store is

" Albertsons " ! My brother who runs their meat market put in

orders to get me soy cheese and extras when i was visiting last

winter. He, like most of my family, struggle with weight so i know

that my lifestyle serves me well. david*

They put that warning becasue of allergies. Some people with nut

allergies can not even smell them. (The nut dust could possible

migrate over...)

Also Haagen Daz makes a sorbet, but it is classified as dairy becasue

they also use those machines to make ice cream.

[Guest guest]

So basically this warning is a " just in case, " not a " definite thing. "

Cool:)

They are truly great- and I have eaten a lot of chocolate(not all

vegan though) in many places(the Belgian economy spiked up when Iwas

in Brussels).

[Guest guest]

Also you will sometimes see -esp on Sorbet(Ben and Jerrys as well as

Haagen daz- I think)- an OU DE- means Orthodox Union(very kosher) but

made on dairy equipment. People who keep kosher very strictly will

not eat DE items with meat or within 6 hours after eating meat- it

can be considered the same as dairy to some people for religious

reasons-even though there is no dairy in the product.
