This week on a holiday themed episode of Straight From the Source, host Clay Gordon gives listeners some very useful gift buying advice when it comes to chocolate. Which chocolate is the best value? Does the box and presentation matter? What's the best place to STORE chocolate once you buy it? Clay shares his unique perspective and makes the case for high-end chocolate as a thoughtful and appropriate gift for any holiday. Find out whether or not you should freeze chocolate and why Clay will never be able to resist a Reeses Cup! This program was sponsored by Heritage Foods USA.
"There is a direct correlation between freshness and quality." [6:24]
"If you take the box of chocolate and put it into the back of the fridge and take out a piece when you want it - you're creating conditions that will reduce the life of the chocolate the fastest." [24:06]
--Clay Gordon, Host of Straight From the Source
