Buy Better Chocolate with the Chocolate Company Guide
Buy Better Chocolate with the Chocolate Company Guide
The Issue
The International Labor Rights Forum has a great guide to which chocolate companies are working to prevent child trafficking in cocoa fields, and which are not.
The good and not so surprising news is that higher quality chocolate like Godiva, Divine, Lindt, etc. is less likely to involve child trafficking in the supply chain.
So indulge compassionately!
