Frango Mints Go Green

Big news on the Macy's front...Frangos are going green.

Doesn't make up for Macy's destroying the quality and history of Marshall Fields. And it doesn't make up for Macy's only returning a portion of Frango production to Chicago.

But it is nice to see a big company embracing organic. Organic milk chocolate, cane sugar and vanilla; plus packaged in recycled paperboard and printed with veggie-based ink, the Trib's Sandy Jones reports.

The new "green" Frangos are set to debut in mostly Midwest stores on April 22, Earth Day, aka, the Playful Spirit Potter's birthday.
