Please support Tony’s Chocolonely- they actively work to make sure that their Cocoa suppliers get a living wage, far more than what virtually any other Cocoa buyers pay.
As a bonus, their chocolate is pretty tasty too!
Fazer from Finland!
As a Belgian, losing Côte d’Or still hurts
Easy choice. I am American and I hate our chocolate. Absolutely dreadful.
if you are in the bay area, check out dandelion in san francisco. they make pretty good chocolate. the stuff you can get in stores is all too chalky for me. theirs is not chalky.
Good, not including Nestle.
Knoppers is a drug and I’m an addict
“European brands”, look inside, american trust funds…
Plain false.
Besides Lindt, which is publicly traded and has a minor share of American investors, almost all the other brands are family owned, which is rare in the modern food industry (Kinder, Nutella, Ritter, Knoppers, Toffifee and Haribo). Tony’s is backed by the Belgian investment group Verlinvest.
Kinder is fairly terrible chocolate though, assuming it’s even legal to call it that.
it’s basically chocolate flavoured sugar
I‘d like to add Zotter to the list. Really good chocolate plus they only use ingredients from organic cultivation and pay their suppliers well.
I tried knoppers a while ago. Goddamn those are fine. And the knopper bars… Omg
Ritter Sport is the best, fight me irl if you disagree
yesn’t. they have really good chocolate, but they refused to boycott russia back in 2022 (or 23?) and had a really low excuse, although most german companies stood in solidarity with ukraine.
Please avoid Nutella, Kinder and Ferrero products in general. They are known to source their cacao and nuts from child labour.
Also Nutella is like 2/3 palm oil, which destroys rainforests.
Be careful of Cadbury, for those considering.
In the US it is mostly Hershey’s, everywhere else it’s fine.
Fazer and Cloetta missing from top eu choices
Where is Tony’s from? I thought it’s uniquely USian?
