Dear Suzanne Somers,

My husband and I just got back from a mountain trek to the Nepalese side of Mount Everest's basecamp. The trek was 14 days long, very strenuous and while the food we ate was all organic, we found ourselves battling stomach bugs after a couple of days. This would zap our energy and make the day's trekking very difficult, and require many unhappy trips to really smelly squat toilets.

Before leaving on our trip, I had packed some emergency food just for this potential problem. As I filled up some ziplocks with Clif Bars and single-serve peanut butter, I found a bag of chocolate-covered espresso beans a friend of mine had given me for Christmas. I looked closely at the bag and saw that they were made by Suzanne Somers! I thought, "hey, this would be a great surprise if we need energy and caffeine and most importantly, a chocolate fix!" I secretly packed them in my bag.

So after a couple days on the trail and after a particularily bad evening spent nursing an upset stomach, I decided to break them out and share them with my husband the following morning. It was the only thing we could manage to eat at that time. Not only are the beans delicious, they woke us up and gave us crazy energy that kept us going up that mountain for hours!

There after, instead of drinking coffee in the morning, we just ate your beans. Sadly, we ran out before the end of the trek, but you can be sure that for future mountain climbs, we will always have plenty of SUZANNE Chocolate Covered Espresso Beans in our backpacks!

Your fan forever and fellow blonde bombshell...

Bette
