    Since they’re raw, I automatically assume they’re just as healthy as eating broccoli and ate five bars in one day. I haven t laughed like that for a while, thank you so much haha. I totally feel you on this one Dude, the chocolate train never stops for me. Like ever. So yes, I am still on it ?? I need to start using dates in recipes more often they are a great healthy alternative!
