Everything is becoming worse…

Now Chocolate! Companies constantly reducing quality of products.

Is Your Favorite Chocolate Bar Actually Made of Chocolate?

Many chocolate brands are removing cocoa from their products due to rising costs of the key ingredient.

As chocolate prices continue to rise, some companies are taking drastic measures to counteract sticker shock. And it's leaving a bitter taste in the mouths of some consumers.

With the cost of cocoa steadily ticking up, some brands have begun swapping in different ingredients. But does the end result taste the same as the real deal?

I remember eating a bunch of sugar free chocolate bars and thinking they tasted pretty good, then running for the toilet. Still not sure what sugar free chocolate could be made of.

The same artificial trash that’s in a lot of foods. If a food item has anything artificial in it I skip it.

It was probably a polyol sugar alcohol (maltitol) which in large doses has a laxative effect

I listened to a commentary about this with restaurants, all the commercial food is produced by the same company, Sysco, and there’s no difference between the quality from restaurant to restaurant.
