This Spider Monkey Endangered Species bar was part of their Organic Health line. I think the “health” part means that they’re full of those trendy superfruits and things of dubious actual health benefit.
The bar was Dark Chocolate with Goji Berry, Pecans, & Maca. Maca?seems to fall pretty squarely in that trendy health claims category. Wikipedia claims it may help gentlemen in the bedroom…
The 70% rainforest alliance certified cocoa had a softer snap than that of the 72% I reviewed on Monday. It smelled lightly and pleasantly fruity.
The chocolate bar’s melt was thick. It was sprinkled through with little white bits of pecan and… stuff.
It started off nice, then brightened and became fruitily sweet, probably thanks to the goji berry. It then took on a medicinal weirdness that was quite artificial and off-putting.
The little embedded bits of stuff added a puffed wheat essence of toastiness, which was nice, and a heavy astringency, which was not so nice.
The finish was extremely bitter and quite astringent. It left a bad taste and feel in my mouth. I didn’t notice any pecan flavors, and I just couldn’t bring myself to try more of the chocolate to try to find them.
I was disappointed. This bar seemed so promising and ended up tasting so awfully medicinal and moisture-sucking. A —.
Goji berry is rich in phytochemicals, I always take goji berry juice and it is tasty too. :
