Chocolate bars usually contain sugar, cocoa butter, and vanilla which are all vegan-friendly. Dark chocolate is usually vegan as it shouldn’t contain dairy or other animal products. The best quality dark chocolate contains more than 50% cacao content and uses only a few ingredients.
Nowadays, most health food stores offer a variety of vegan options. And if you’re buying online, the options are nearly limitless! These online retailers are approved by the Fair World Project, an organization that advocates for fair trade practices globally:
