Are you telling me that Mondeléz and Nestlé are evil?
ReplyWhile it’s painful-so glad you’re back 💕😖
ReplyI was really expecting John to cover the ongoing genocide that Israel is committing in Gaza by now. Come on John!
ReplyNot gonna lie, I thought this whole video would be about Nestle (a company that said water wasn’t a human right).
I genuinely thought LWT already covered Nestle, but it was actually another British funny man who told depressing stories, Ordinary Things.
I try to avoid purchasing from the company since then, but they have their hands in a surprisingly large amount of products (fucking Hots Pockets are under them).
ReplyLol. As if I’m willing to pay more for chocolate.
ReplyDammit it John whyyy u gotta ruin Halloween candy for me 😂
ReplyAn apology 😂😂😂😂😂. No apology to you. But the British Empire owes Africa a lot.
ReplyNo US late show “leftist” hosts are saying ONE FUCKING WORD ABOUT GAZA.
ReplyTheir country is complicit in genocide, yet they don’t seem to be able to denounce it the same way they denounce other political problems.
Me: How is he gonna ruin chocolate?
Reply_looks over at bag of halloween candy_
Me: Ah, crap. I forgot Nestle still exists.
Our household learned of this several years ago. We found Tony’s and are able to budget 2 or 3 bars a week. It’s amazing how much one can appreciate chocolate so much more from a good quality seller who also doesn’t take advantage of their distribution.
ReplyThanks indeed for addressing the injustice.
ReplyIt’s outrageous.
Besides having reduced my sugar intake by 90% for almost 18 months, I only buy dark organic chocolate from organic farming
I don’t like chocolate.
ReplyThe western world likes to grandstand and patronize the poor to make itself feel better. Hypocrisy is nauseating. The fact is those children in poor countries always worked and will work as without work their existence is even more miserable.
ReplyDon’t blame the companies making chocolate their business is to make money. Want to help the poor ? Sell your assets and distribute them to the poor.
Truly sorry Mr. Oliver, I imagine you do a very good job of explaining why chocolate causes sphincter cancer or something, but I just can’t have you ruin it for me, not chocolate.
ReplyTony’s Chocolonely is AMAZING! The chocolate is everywhere in the Netherlands, and I’ve seen it in some US grocery stores! It’s delicious, comes in multiple flavors (including a recent one with Ben & Jerry’s), and has wrapping that looks like an unholy shroomed up love baby of Cracker Barrel and Willy Wonka. 10/10 genuinely recommend, despite the terrible design.
ReplyFor the record…. Tony’s is really tasty.
ReplyOf course Chocolate is safer issue than Genocide. well done John..
ReplyThank you Mr. Oliver. You have now managed to (among many other things) ruin the literally sweetest thing in the world for me. All that’s left now are f-able horses. Please don’t tell me that’s fake, too. 😉
ReplyWhy is there a fuming hot turd next to Hersey?
