My sister knows how to give the perfect Christmas gift! My favorite, Good quality dark chocolate! This assortment is “Trader Joe’s Chocolate Passport.”
It’s a guilt free mood lifter for me that I can feel good about having several times each week. Studies say that dark chocolate is good for your heart and your brain. Chemicals in the chocolate encourage your brain to release endorphins and can actually make you feel happier. It has a low glycemic index and won’t cause huge sugar spikes as long as you stick with the 70% cocoa or higher variety. Dark chocolate is loaded with antioxidants and is high in vitamins and minerals like magnesium, potassium and iron.
Lily Eastbrook Rhodes in “Heart Seasons: A Journey of Miracles” always had an excellent selection of dark chocolate available at “Calla Lilies” and this SUPERFOOD was a weekly purchase for her regular customers.
For easy stress-free shopping, find some of my favorite non-perishable recipe ingredients in our Vitacost.com Healthy Living Shop or some of my “Featured Kitchen Favorites” in our Walmart.com Shop or try our Personal Care & Tea Shop. They contain links to online stores where I like to shop.

They do have several good quality products that I like. Their tuna and salmon, for example, are packed in BPA free cans.
They do have great chocolate. I love their “more than a pound” block of dark chocolate-very good buy. I just learned that Trader Joes is owned by Aldi, a German discount grocery store. They also have good chocolate.
