Chocolate prices could increase.

[catherinecherub]

I love chocolate and eat a good quality one in moderation.
This article suggests that we may be paying more very soon. I do buy chocolate for other family members, especially at Christmas,but will be cutting back if it gets to a ridiculous price.

I heard there is a shortage of cocoa bean as well. There was a TV programme stating that the majority of cocoa farmers are quite elderly and there are very few youngsters taking up the crop ! Nightmare lol !

we were threatening centre parcs next year because apparently you can take dogs, no need now, looks terrific though, maybe one day ill have to try it do they have internet wifi because you could take my kids on a space ship and youd have trouble getting them to look up from there phones and game thingies to look at saturn

A shame for chocolate lovers everywhere, rarely eat it now (Aldi's Moser Roth) but tbh......what isn't going up in price? The utility companies are robbing us blind :evil:

Re: R: Chocolate prices could increase.

I'm on a very strict diet and I'm diabetic 1 (indeed! A diabetic here! :mrgreen: ) so this news is just great. I hope chocolate will reach something like 100 euro/100 grammes so no more temptations :evil:

I love chocolate and I'll never be able to give it up, if the price does go up I'd still pay!
