hi amgrundy, actually it was a dairy free chocolate bar from Sainsbury's but I felt ill after it as it had too much sugar! I'll be steering clear of it in future and will probably stick to adding a bit of cocoa powder to almond milk for now for a chocolate fix (i try not to buy a large bar of dark chocolate as I don't want to eat the lot), although I am also curious about cacao from the health food shop.

That was a rather long answer - I must be tired - having trouble thinking straight - night.

B: Leek &Wensleydale Stuffed Mushroom and a fried egg.

L: A bowl of Thai green curry and stir fry veg coconut soup, home made.
