    Ok, where?? So I was already avoiding Nestle, now I find out Mars is in on this shit too. Is there any chocolate I can eat that isn’t born from child slave labor? Are Reese’s ok? I just want chocolate without supporting literal slavery.

    Edit: just saw your other comment

      Most supermarkets these days have ethical chocolate alternatives. Their brands aren’t as well-known so you might not notice them unless you’re looking for them, that was my case.

      Then the first time I looked for ethical chocolate, chocolonely was right there on display in the first Safeway I walked into.
