mmm, cadbury fruit & nut, like the bridget jones that i am. it's milk chocolate with chopped up raisins and pecans--so yummy. it's not all that easy to find around here because i guess it's not that popular outside the UK (but i have my sources!) but i just discovered that good old trader joe's in now making an organic knockoff and it tastes just as good. yummy!

OH! I LOVE Cadburry Fruit&Nut, too. Every time I'm in Europe, I get a ton.

In terms of American choclates, I like:
- PB M&Ms
- Reese's PB Cups

Dagoba Organic Chocolate, hands down. There are many interesting varieties and you can get it at Whole Foods (and possibly other natural markets).

A girlfriend and I have chocolate tastings at work. The Dagoba is as complex as wine -- bouquet, body, mouthfeel, finish... all that! We are serious about chocolate; i mean, why eat a bunch of cheap waxy chocolate when all you need is a tiny square of something fabulous?

My current favorite is:
Conacado Varietal Cocoa Bittersweet Chocolate - Fair-trade pure 73% dark chocolate from the farmer-owned Conacado Cooperative in the Dominican Republic
