Trying to give out something healthy on Halloween may feel a little like adding a single solar panel to a 5-bedroom home with two SUVs in the garage, but any healthier, greener addition you can make to the evening is worth a little extra effort. So instead of heading to the nearest Wal-Mart, where the universal green labeling system has yet to make its appearance and the sugary treats are far from Fair Trade, organic and healthy, try hitting up your nearest health food store or order online.

For the classically-colored Halloween appearance, we like Sjaak’s Dark Chocolate Orange Bites, which aren’t the cheapest option at $32.95 for a one and a half pound tub, but are well worth what you pay (they’re so good, in fact, that the hardest part will be giving them up to trick-or-treaters). These chocolates are 100% organic, which means you’re not only saving the environment from exposure to pesticides (which is often required in mass quantities for chocolate growing), but that you’ll likely notice a big difference in the flavor of your hand-outs, if taste tests that rank organic chocolate as better tasting are any indication.

Just as important as what you will find in Sjaak’s Dark Chocolate Orange Bites (organic chocolate and gourmet flavors) is what you won’t find in these little foil-wrapped goodies: GMO ingredients, preservatives, artificial flavors or colors, and animal ingredients. Click here to read more
