Product of the Day: NibMor Chocolate

Behind the Burner: Product of the Day: NibMor Chocolate

On my long list of pet peeves, sitting comfortably between ’chewing with your mouth open“ and ’complaining about the weather“ is ’declaring yourself a chocolate lover and only liking Hershey‘s.“ (Note: there is a difference between someone who loves chocolate and a chocolate lover) Personally, I feel that if you‘re someone who simply loves chocolate, you‘re craving can be satisfied by a regular candy bar from the rack underneath the checkout counter at CVS. If you‘re a chocolate lover, however, the thought of sugary, gritty, poor quality chocolate makes you cringe. Seriously, how many times have you found yourself nauseous, shaking and crashing from your sugar-high after eating an entire bar? That‘s why when I eat chocolate, I make sure it‘s organic, there are no refined sugars — you know the drill.

NibMor, an organic, vegan, refined sugar-free and gluten free chocolate bar, has recently been added to my list of indulgences (I have a ton of lists). From the first bite of the Original bar, I was hooked. It‘s thicker than a classic chocolate bar — no skimping here — and smoother than the majority of bars deemed ’the best.“ The dark chocolate is rich with a bit of bitterness to it, but is sweet enough to have you coming back for the second, third and fourth bite (the fifth is just finishing the entire bar — I have no shame). And my favorite ingredient added to this wonderful mix of bliss, sea salt. The subtle hint of salt lingers on after all of the chocolate has, sadly, disappeared.

I had the pleasure of trying not one, but two types of NibMor chocolate bars. The Crispy bar, crisped with toasted brown rice, was flat out fantastic. Again, I was sucked in by the decadence of the chocolate, while the crackles of each bite had me finishing off an entire second bar. But hey, no sugar-high shakes here. It‘s hard to believe it‘s actually healthy; but if you don‘t believe me, feel free to check out their Health Beni‘s and Nib-tionaryfor everything you need to know about Agave, Cacao and weight loss benefits. Yeah, you heard me, weight loss.

Well done, NibMor, well done.
