Today was Day #3 of Chocolate and Almonds Theme Week.

These Chocolate Almonds from Sunbiotics (Glenview, IL) were made with health-conscious consumers in mind -- from whole organic, sprouted raw almonds that were coated with organic, raw cocoa powder, and organic coconut sugar -- and a hint of probiotics. (The soaking and sprouting process was used to make the almonds more digestible.)

The chocolate played a secondary role to the almonds in this organic, raw, gluten free and dairy free offering, which was nice for a change. And these chocolate almonds were not overly sweet (something else I liked). There was no detectable taste to the probiotics (live bacteria, similar to what you might find in yogurt and soy yogurt, that may confer health benefits).
