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 !

lol strikes me as funny that we are complaining about the price of chocolate on a diabetes forum, dont get me wrong i like a bit of chocolate, its just seems funny :)
 
It's a good job I don't eat the stuff anymore! lol I'm saving my piggy bank for Center parcs instead-fresh forest air and tranquility plus quad biking and off road 4X4 driving experiences plus a cracking chill out spa. :thumbup:

The Spa keeps the missus sweet whilst I do the adrenaline blokey stuff! :D
 
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
 
ps paul ruined your chocolate thread not me i was just going with it lol, sorry
 
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:
