Happy National Oatmeal Day! Oatmeal is one of those staple cold weather comfort foods many of us couldn't imagine life without.

It can be a challenging world out there for a foodie with high standards; picking up jars of nut butter only to set them back down, disgusted with a nutritional label full of refined sugars, salt, and processed oils. However, before you feel too disheartened, let us just say, we feel you, and in fact have crafted products just for you.
Chocolate is clearly our jam here at Windy City Organics. While our signature stone ground raw chocolate base is fantastic on its own, we have to admit, we do really enjoying enhancing it further with fun superfood toppings.
