Eco Choco


Purchase Location : FamilyMart
Purchased Price : 210 Yen
Kcal : 291
Maker : Lotte

This chocolate bar was released on the 14th of this month by Lotte.  As the name implies, it is an ecologically minded product. On the back of the wrapper there is a statement that says this chocolate bar was produced from cacao beans that were grown in Brazil on farms that use an agroforestry system


Being “eco” does come at a price. The cost of this chocolate bar was 210 yen, while an average plain one can be found for around 105 yen at many stores.

I should have bought these eco chocolates for Valentines Day for my g/f. Ending up getting these tacky Hello Kitty chocolates for her
