He called the chocolate "chocolonely." He's a lonely man and his name is Tony. He wants you to be all alone in the world.

no, because it makes ppl think that they are actually helping slave children when in reality it doesnt on any significant level and anesyhtizes you from actually doing something impactful instead of just eating chocolate.
You're wrong. I mean, if I go to the store and I'm going to buy chocolate, and I buy from someone who I can verify through third parties is actually paying a fair wage for his cocoa beans, that is a better outcome for one group of people than purposefully giving money to someone utilizing slave labor. The farmers that get handed money on the spot for their cocoa pods in the these farms are factually better off than they'd be otherwise. No amount of moralizing about this actually being no good because you want to keep justifying your consumption of slave chocolate is going to put money in the hands of those farmers.
The fact is that people are going to buy chocolate and attacking things like this just because it doesn't solve the problem entirely is just stupid. You want everyone to just stop buying chocolate entirely to fix the problem? Ok, but it's not going to happen, so if we can't have a perfect solution a fair trade solution is a much better one.
It's easy for you to sit there and say it does nothing without even bothering to research what they do at all. Hope you are feeling good and superior now that you're refused any possible way to improve the situation.
Seriously, what do you think should be done? Do you think all fair trade production policies should be abolished, that they literally do more harm than good? I don't see how third party verified fair rates for labor can possibly be a bad thing -- it's way better than the alternative, just rampantly abused third world labor. Should just no chocolate be shipped anywhere outside of where it grows naturally? What's your solution?

Greetings, Golden Ticket Winners, and welcome to Tony's Chocolonely Factory. Come see the wonders of my river. It's just a regular river with no chocolate in it. And here are some squirrels. They're just normal squirrels. And this is my television. It's a smart TV. My Netflix account is useless because there aren't any good movies. Here are my workers. They're normal people and they don't dance or sing. They don't know poo poo about making chocolate either. At night they go home to their loveless marriages and weep.

A lot of people aren't even aware of the problem of labor in the chocolate industry. These bars are both fair trade and educational. I can't see anything bad about that. If capitalism drives somebody to stop buying $2.50 chocolate bars because they feel ashamed of abusing the third world, then that is good. I don't get how any of you can sit there and be like 'NO. THIS IS ACTUALLY BAD. I DON'T WANT THE PRODUCERS OF COCOA AT ABOCFA AND ECOOKIM TO MAKE ANY MONEY FOR THEIR COCOA. I HATE FAIR TRADE, IT'S MEANINGLESS.'

drat. Ok. The joke was that chocolate melts easily and meltdowns have the word "melt" in it. If someone wants to do a better job, I think this joke has potential, so feel free.

Another thing to consider in this joke is that it's best to melt chocolate in a double boiler, so that you don't scorch it

for real though that thing looks annoying as gently caress to break into smaller pieces... like first of all where do you start? probably a corner is best. second, you can bet ur rear end you're gonna get chocolate from extra sections when trying to achieve a clean break.
In conclusion, I'm gonna have to give ol' boney tony's chocolate a 3/10 on portion rational.

unfortunately, im a slave to a long family history of heart disease and adult onset diabetes, so I wont be purchasing this product and will probably eat a piece of fruit instead.
Same except for the part where you won't be eating the chocolate. I have already excepted my fate and will do my part to end slavrey by eating this chocolonely.

Nobody made him name the bar "Chocolonely." He did that his own drat self. Nobody held a gun to his head. He was just sitting there one day and thought to himself "I want people to associate my chocolate bar with loneliness."

I, Tony, being of sound mind, want you to think of painful social isolation and despair whenever you think of my chocolate. My ideal consumer is a woman or man who has been abandoned by their friends and family, probably forever. My marketing strategy will be to place my chocolate bar on a desert island and sink passing ships with my submarine.
