Tony's Chocolonely bars are shaped unevenly to represent farmer inequality and the coastline of Africa
(lemmy.world)
"It doesn’t make sense for chocolate bars to be divided into equal-sized chunks when there is so much inequality in the chocolate industry! The unequally-sized chunks of our 6.35 oz bars are a palatable way of reminding Choco Fans and Serious Friends that the profits in the chocolate industry are unequally divided.
And in case you haven’t noticed, the bottom of our bars depicts the West African coastline. The chunks just above it represent the Gulf of Guinea. From left to right, you have Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Togo and Benin (terribly politically incorrect, we know, but we had to combine them to create enough space for a hazelnut), Nigeria and part of Cameroon."
I want to like this chocolate, but it's just so bland.
I think it’s delicious.
Are you American as I find your chocolate far too sweet so perhaps you just like sugar and not chocolate.
I realise that might sound offensive but I don’t mean it that way, just curious.
Swedish. I think Marabou and Fazer taste 100x better than Tony’s, but maybe I have to give it another chance. Not like I eat chocolate that much anymore so it couldn’t hurt.
And I do love dark chocolate as well.
Are those as ethically sourced?
Doubt it, which is why I rarely eat them anymore

I don't like chocolate that much, but if I do have it, dark all the way. The less sweet the better. I'm sure I have some limit, like 90% probably too much, but I definitely like less sweet.
Me too :) I just thought that thread was funny
