I am always on the look out for something yummy and portable and if the littles will eat it - BONUS!

My new fav snack is Emerald's Cocoa Roast Almonds - Dark Chocolate.  I love almonds to begin with but do get a little tired of tamari and these are kind of sweet so it's like a little dessert.  Now when I have my chocolate milk for recovery or just for dessert at night I grab a handful of these as well.  The kids dig them (when I am willing to share) and they travel well which is important in this summer heat.

The last ingredient is Sucralose but I'm willing to over look that for a small snack.

FYI...Sam's Club has these in a HUGE bulk-size container for $9.99.  I've already been through 2 containers myself...pretty addicting!  I just finished off the last of 'em...think I'll lay off 'em for awhile.
