Tabal Dark Chocolate with Mushrooms

Time to get nerdy with chocolate. In the superfood world, chocolate has always been a shining star. Chocolate is full of antioxidants and has often measured up against other superfoods rather well.
For example, according to the 2010 USDA ORAC database (ORAC stands for Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity and is measured in μ mol TE/100 g) a standard dark chocolate bar has an ORAC number between 20,000 and 24,600 units.

Today’s chocolate comes from a company located in my old stomping grounds where I grew up – Wauwatosa, WI. I lived on 73rd and Center and spent countless hours riding my bike around town. North Avenue was the longest, busiest street, and it had everything. There was Tosa Variety, the penny candy store, A&P grocery (and then a Kohl’s Food Store). I bought all my hamsters at Wisconsin Garden and Pet. I remember eating the most delicious bakery at Hartter’s with my Dad on Sunday morning.
