Whole Foods: Organic and Delicious!

I absolutely adore Whole Foods. I used to live a few blocks away from one, and would frequent it at least a few times a week. It is a bit more expensive than your normal grocery store, but the produce is generally fresh and extremely good and they have many tasty products. The only department I was disappointed in was their frozen dinners: I bought the organic frozen lasagna and found it to be very bland and rubbery.

If you ever stop by Whole Foods and are hankering for a nice snack, here are some things I recommend:

1. Hagensborg's Truffle Pig Chocolate Bar
 

 A treat that is both cute and tasty. Very rich (watch out, it melts easily) and sinfully creamy, it's sure to satisfy a sweet tooth. It's available in a variety of flavors; I found both the Dark and Raspberry varieties to be delectable. Bit pricey though- this was $5 a pop in my area.

2.  Green&Black's White Chocolate with Strawberries Ice Cream

Quite possibly one of the best ice creams I've ever tried. At first, I expected it to be studded with strawberry chunks. It actually consists of super-smooth and super-creamy white chocolate ice cream swirled with preserves. I adore this stuff, so much I wish it came in a bigger container. Very rich in flavor, but it doesn't overdo the sweetness. Also a bit expensive, but hey, it's worth every penny.
