This evening I tried vegan cherry-flavored chocolate made by Endangered Species brand–it’s got a picture of a koala on the front. It’s so delicious. I also tired vegan dark chocolate Sunspire brand with puffed wild rice in it, and that was great too, but maybe too subtle for me–I mean, the puffed wild rice was… Read More »
