Lovely nutty & sweet snack!Oct 10, 2007

The milk chocolate chunks in this product are heavenly. The reason for the 3-star rating, whereas my other reviews of the Al Wadi halvas are higher, is primarily because of the inconsistency in the quality of the product from tub to tub in the same case, in the same shipment. The first one I opened was amazing. There were enormous globs of those wonderful chocolate chunks and the halva was soft, and resembled chocolate chip cookie dough in texture with this sweet, nutty taste that was to-die-for. The next tub I opened was quite dry and although it had some good chunks in it, I found that I was basically digging out the chocolate and avoiding the halva, which was hard, dry and nearly tasteless. The remaining tubs followed this trend. I compared the halva in this product (just the halva) to the plain Al Wadi halva and it didn't taste nearly as good; it was also harder and drier and more compacted. If I were rating on the halva alone in this particular iteration, I would have to give it 1 or 2 stars, but the stellar chocolate pieces really deserve some credit, so I settled on an overall rating of 3 stars. I don't think that this type has as much benefit for breastfeeding mothers as the plain or pistachio types because of the large amount of chocolate which has been introduced to the product, and the benefit comes in the halawa extract which is in the halva and not the chocolate. If you're looking to increase your breast milk production, get the plain or pistachio; however, I think the American palette would be more receptive to this, the halva with chocolate, IMHO. Get some gas relief pills if you're going to be snacking on halva constantly for breast milk production (take it from me and save yourself the pain)!
