On the fifth day of Christmas my foodie gave to me...

Five Chocolate Bars!

The 5th day of Christmas, in the original song blasts "5 golden rings!" I can't think of anything food wise that compares to the preciousness of gold other than, of course--chocolate. And I'll give two chocolate bar options (but there are, of course, many wonderful chocolate bars out there to behold).

Moonstruck Chocolate sells a 5 bar pack of elegant chocolate bars for $15 including the standard milk, ivory and dark chocolate, plus Chile Variado and Espresso Bean flavors.

Dagoba Chocolate is one of a few organic chocolate companies in the country and their bars are loaded with phytochemicals the cocoa bean is naturally endowed with. May I suggest their 12 Bar Alchemist's Blend box--a mix of their top selling dark and milk bars ($36). Discover flavors like "Brasilia" with coconut and roasted exotic nuts, "Chai" with a secret blend of chai spices and crystallized ginger, or "Mon Cherri" with cherries/vanilla. According to my calculations, if you give away two food gifts of 5 chocolate bars each...that leaves two bars for you! But then who's counting!
