Cocoa garden mulch is deadly to dogs?

I also posted this in garden and landscaping because if true, the word needs to get out there.

Has anyone heard about this? Garden season is coming up and Snopes says it is true. Help me find out and spread the word. No warnings are on the package and it is being sold at a lot of places. And, yes, it smells like chocolate.
