Nice

“Cacao nibs are small, crunchy pieces of pure, roasted (or raw) cacao beans — essentially chocolate in its most natural form, before sugar, milk, or other ingredients are added.” Thus spake Grok.

I read some article or other that said cacao nibs were good for you in some way or other and being the thoroughly gullible weasel that I am, I instantly ordered a kilo of them. Not sure if mine are roasted or raw – the label is a little ambiguous.

They have a pleasant crunchy texture and an earthy taste but, as you might imagine, they’re very bitter. I like bitter tastes, but I paired them up with honey sesame peanuts (which are ordinarily a little sweet for me) and they make a fantastic combo.

I wonder what they’re supposed to be doing for me?
