New to dark chocolate, tastes really good!

1 year ago

I bought this (in-store) to try out as I am trying to adopt a more healthy lifestyle, and this came up in an article about good & sustainable dark chocolates. Unfortunately, I didn’t read the reviews on here first, that stated “according to CR this chocolate contains heavy metal ingredients”, which is such a shame, because I actually thought that the brown butter bar was a very tasty treat that was smooth, barely bitter, and I felt could potentially help to keep me on track with reaching my health goals and have health benefits too. Guess I will have to do more research/a deeper dive before making future dark chocolate purchases to ensure there’s no heavy metals/potentially harmful ingredients.

Delicious dark chocolate with an impact

4 months ago

I picked this up at an REI and specifically chose it because it supports organic farmers and rainforests. The burnt caramel and mint are two of my favorite flavors.

Alter Eco Dark Chocolate Contains Cadmium

2 years ago

Alter Eco dark chocolate contains very high levels of the heavy metal cadmium. I am very disappointed that REI would sell such an item.

Where's the flavor?

4 years ago

I was a few $$ short of free shipping on my last order so I added this to the order 'cause it was less than paying for shipping without it. I'm a dark chocolate fan. Very disappointed. Supposedly, this is mint dark chocolate.Hardly any flavor to it. Definitely could not taste any mint. It's like popping a piece of cardboard in your mouth, cardboard that does eventually melt. Save your money and buy a major brand, even Hershey's Special Dark over this.

NOT VEGAN

This bar has milk in it. NOT VEGAN as advertised. Waste of money as I choose not to ingest animal secretions.

Unable to eat product. It was "old"/discolored; even though within date. Alter Eco was not willing to do anything because we purchased this item from a physical store. I know REI would handle, but we do live near the store.

Alter Eco Chocolate Bar, good addition to a snack

3 years ago

I am saving this bar for the Christmas week. I have tried a small piece and the taste is very good. This would make a good addition to a picnic lunch, a mid ride/hike snack with fruit, or with wine at the end of a busy day.

Dark Chocolate Perfection

Alter Eco Blackberry Blackout Dark Chocolate is wonderful! The pairing of the blackberry flavor with exceptional dark chocolate is some of the best! The chocolate is smooth and rich and a true treat.

Good flavor but high cadmium levels.

1 year ago

This is very good tasting chocolate that I bought at the REI checkout. Unfortunately when I went to order some I found out it has high levels of cadmium according to Consumer Reports testing.
