2.0 out of 5 stars Fine As Beans, But Misleading Advertising Here, December 22, 2007

The beans are fine... nothing exceptional. One of the reasons I selected this item as a gift was because of the attractive jar in which the beans are presented. As you have guessed by now, the jar is NOT included. In the end, you get a small plastic bag (as also pictured...) with chocolate-covered beans. It is okay, but not worth the price nor the additional shipping costs.

1.0 out of 5 stars received a bag of melted chocolate, August 7, 2008

I purchased this product for a friend. Instead of receiving chocolate covered beans I received a bag that consisted of melted chocolate. The shipping and handling was very high and I thought that the chocolate would probably arrive a little soft but this is just ridiculous. The bag looks and feels like it's filled with chocolate syrup.

1) The beans don't come in the fancy pants jar.
2) The beans are super small, most of the "energy" would be a sugar rush if any at all.
3) They are not bad tasting, but I have had much better.
4) Yeah, I am aware that they help or encourage a certain cause, but if you're gonna charge me 5 bucks and change for a small bag of something you better make sure it's the best I've ever had!
5) I will give them this, I did not received them all melted, but then again, I did order them during the winter.
***Overall, I would not buy them again, too costly, for low quality and deceiving presentation.
