I use Open Original Shared Link. It's available in the Kosher section of many grocery stores. Enjoy Life also makes gluten, dairy and soy free chocolate.

They're all *good* chocolates, so they aren't cheap. But I cannot FATHOM eating a whole 2-3oz dark chocolate "bar" in one sitting. One of those things will last me about a week, if I'm eating chocolate every day. Dark chocolate is an acquired taste, if you don't already like it, so give it a chance.

I generally get my chocolate from: Open Original Shared Link (based in Portland), and winter is a perfect time of year to do shipping. I have found Theo locally (but, it's a Seattle company, and I live in the Puget Sound ;) ), and have found Cluizel and Castelain at Cost Plus World Market, which is fairly common on the West Coast.

Enjoy Life's is ok, but ... well, it's not *good* chocolate. :P (Yes, I am a self-admitted chocolate snob. I think Hershey's chocolate is foul tasting. So, your mileage may vary with my advice. :D )

I just recently foudn Enjoy Life's "boom CHOCO boom" dark chocolate bars and they are YUMMY!!! I have always been a chocolate snob and have been dancing a happy dance since finding these. They are Dairy-free, Gluten-free, Nut-Free and Soy-Free!!! I found it at Kroger's and a 1.4 oz. bar costs 1.59. I looked them up online and they seem to run about 1.79 on some of the shopping sites. 1.4 oz doesn't seem like much, but it has 4 sections to it and I try to stick to having one section a day. It's a WONDERFUL treat!!

Oh, I see you're in WA. If you're near Seattle, you can head over to Theo (it's in Fremont) and do a factory tour (free public tours, paid group tours w/ 10 person minimum). It's awesome, with lots of tasting.

the boom choco boom with crispy rice was good until i tried 'dark chocolate dream with almond'. it's like $3 bar but it's bigger then the enjoy life boom choco bar. I got it at kent nature's market, I don't remember if Whole Foods or PCC has it. I don't care for dark chocolate but to me this tastes like real milk chocolate. It's dairy/gluten free. also vegan chocolate chips are pretty good frozen.

Whole Foods, Bartell's, and a few other random places.

Thank you so much. I live in the Puget Sound as well....I'm about an hour from the Candian border. But when I visit my mom in Everett I will be sure to check out Cost Plus World Market. I think the have one in Redmond. Thank you so much...I will check them all out on the web.

I just found out Pier One Imports carrys Theos chocolate bars so I will be on my way down there today. The lady on the phone told me they have five varieties so hopefully they will have ones I can consume.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Fighting for a name

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
