Wandering through the aisles, I stumbled upon something I don’t usually see. An artisanal halva dessert in the international section. It’s a Middle Eastern sweet made with 55% tahini. Yes, sesame paste. This one’s flavored with dark chocolate and roasted almonds. What really intrigued me? It’s vegan, has no weird additives and carries a rich, nutty flavor that feels both nostalgic and new. I didn’t take it home this time but I’m still thinking about it. Might just be my next sweet adventure.
