5.0 out of 5 stars Avoid Nutricity, December 19, 2009

Be careful what supplier you select. It shouldn't be Nutricity. From Amazon, the G&B bars (made in Canada) arrive promptly; I've ordered them several times and will again. My first (and last) order from Nutricity, however, arrived a month after the order had been placed, and then only after an inquiry to the seller. The bars were dry, stale and hard, the color of cocoa powder rather than chocolate bars. Although the bars still had 10 months to go before expiration of the sell-by date on the wrappers, they were a disgrace to the good name of G&B. It may be that they had been stored improperly, or that the single paper wrapper used in the Italian plant (the Canadian maker uses an inner foil wrap) allowed too much air to get to the bars. I'll grind them for hot chocolate, but they are unsuitable for eating directly and very similar in quality to the bars one sometimes finds at mass-market outlets that resell overstock from other retailers.

5.0 out of 5 stars No GMO ingredients in G&B bars, April 4, 2011

It's interesting to read that some reviewers are saying the bars contain GMO ingredients.
The information is erroneous. Green & Black's does not use GMO soy lecithin or any other GMO ingredient.
This is taken directly from their website:
Are your products GM-free?
Yes - as all of our products are certified by the Soil Association, this ensures no genetically modified (GM) ingredients are used in their production.
Just FYI, the Soil Association is the UK equivalent of the NOP here in the US, the organic certification body.
They're very strict.

It can't be vegan and contain MILK. I've been a vegetarian for years and am now trying to become more vegan. I LOVE dark chocolate but this is false advertising. It is not vegan if there is milk in it!!
