Chocolate is Good for You
Posted by Simon
According to Xocai Healthy Chocolate it is. “A chocolate bar per day can keep the doctor away.” They have a web site to prove it. poweredbyxocolate.com. Which by the way also offers you an opportunity to buy some chocolate. We found this opportunity at dinner last night at a very nice restaurant in Grand Junction, Colorado named Bin 707. On the recommendation of Elise M, our server we tried a Colorado Pinot Noir from Terror Creek winery. The wine was quite good and the ambiance and food were very good.
This is why we travel so you can learn about good restuarants in Western Colorado, the Colorado wine industry and the health benefits of chocolate.
