ChocolateBet: January 25, 2008

Chocolate of the Day:

2 pieces/individually-wrapped squares
Hershey's Cacao Reserve
Single Origin Collection
Arriba, Premium Dark Milk Chocolate
Very Good
Weight: 14 grams (estimate) /4.2 oz. (119 g.) (in entire package)
Calories: 76 calories (estimate) in 2 squares
Cost: $ 1.74 (sale price)
Purchased from: Walgreens, Palo Alto, CA

This Arriba single origin square from Hershey's was very good. It was made from Arriba (Forastero) cacao from Southern Ecuador, and this 50% cacao chocolate reminded me of the "deep" milk chocolate flavor (in Vosges Mo's Bacon Bar) that I enjoyed recently.

Well, I think I'm closing in on the 500th day of eating a different chocolate each day, and I'm (happily) not running out of different chocolates to sample. And with Valentines Day just a few weeks away, there should be plenty of new chocolates in the stores to get me to at least March 2008.
