Gwyneth Paltrow Husband Chris Martin Shuns Organic Chocolate

Gwyneth Paltrow‘s husband and Coldplay singer Chris Martin is one cheap vegetarian.
Although Gwyneth tries to constantly introduce higher end organic foods to her husband, he refuses and wants to spend as little money as possible.
“Chris is terrible. The cheaper the better and I think he’s transferred it to (son) Moses. When I try to give my husband a piece of (organic chocolate) Green & Black’s, he’s like, ‘Get that stuff away from me,” Paltrow said.
That’s a bummer, considering organic chocolate comes with all the goodness of all the antioxidant benefits of flavonoids found in cocoa minus the head lice shampoo.
Yes, that’s right.
Lindane is a chemical that is used in head lice treatment that was banned in U.S. crops, but may still be used on cocoa plants in other countries.
And in the U.S., the EPA still allows various levels of pesticides to be used in chocolates like Methyl Bromide, Pyrethrins, Hydrogen Cyanide, Naled and Glyphosate, which have been shown in animal studies to produce health ailments like thyroid problems, headaches and nausea.
Save pesticides for the head bugs and opt for organic chocolate companies, many of which also offer fair trade and vegan varieties.
Here’s a list to get you started.
