What did you eat today?

[Catrin]

You know, I have never been in a local Whole Foods; in fact, the only one I've been to was in Boulder, in 2002, when we took DS #2 to look at CU. There is one in the next town, so I guess I'll head over.

Whole Foods charges just under $10 for 8 ounces of the powder, and I think I paid $11 for the nibs (though you probably just want to start with the powder). You might be able to find a lower price that would justify the shipping online - I live about a 15 minute drive so I just get in the car.

On the subject of nibs. These are roasted pieces of the cacoa bean, and I am here to tell you that a few in hot tea or coffee makes them soft and yummy-chewy. I am going to grind them for some "choffy", basically treat them like coffee. We will see how it works I suspect the nibs will work even better in my chili and a dry rub that I already use the powder for!
