I didn't know a thing about this. I guess not many of us do. Last night I saw a broadcast on the involvement of the chocolate industry and child slavery.
I'm going to ask something really difficult for all of us who love chocolate. Can we please stop eating any form of chocolate product that isn't part of a 'Fair Trade' manufacturing agreement ? That means we have to boycott all the major brands.
Please pass this on to everyone and anyone. Please make retailers aware of the problem.
This is horrific.
To the Moderators of this board - I know this is not, by any means, a travel related topic but slavery is something we must all do something about - and with your help we can.
