What a great post for Halloween. Eat that dark chocolate folks! I know I will. (Confession: already do; and daily.)

Also, that Holy Carp! compostable soy sauce-dropper is interesting. I was not familiar with the plastic version of that. That's horrible. YES PLEASE, I say, to a compostable version of any kind of plastic one-time use condiment–or any other product–packaging.

Thanks for another informative and entertaining post.

Smarter, better looking, and more successful ;) I wrote an essay on why dark chocolate is good for you to get in my first farmer's market a dozen years ago (now defunct Crocker Galleria RIP) and the most interesting of a long list of studies I cited was a Seedish one that found you could stay in the sun twenty minutes longer without burning with regular chocolate consumption! I'm in front of the Ferry Building on Saturdays next to the Foodwise demo kitchen and at 2nd Ave and Clement on Sundays if you get the chance come say hi. I'm a big fan and have lots of samples. Happy haunting!
