 The end of chocolate as we know it today!?!
Just saw this: http://uk.lifestyle.yahoo.com/worldwide ... aring.htmlShort quote from the first part of the article:  Can't say I like the idea of living in a world where chocolate turns into a luxury or the idea that it won't "melt in your mouth" anymore! Will be like waking up one day and finding all the "working class" chocolate is now like "PowerSauce Bars" Apple cores and Chinese Newspapers! and only the rich can afford what we know as chocolate today. Well, not exactly like The Simpsons, but something worse than now.

 Re: The end of chocolate as we know it today!?!
I only get an appetite for chocolate in the coldest months of the year. I guess some clever boffin will save the day with an acceptable substitute. I don't mind carob, though chocolate is tastier.

Well, this just means that we need to stay ahead of the game, while China is getting ready for chocolate, I present to you the new taste sensation: black licorice!

As long as coffee is still affordable, I will be content.

 Re: The end of chocolate as we know it today!?!
Ahh, I don't eat chocolate that much (says he who is eating a Chocolate Orange at this very moment in time) but I fear for my survival should Chocolate ever become expensive or scarce. My Girlfriend and best friend kill for chocolate...

 Re: The end of chocolate as we know it today!?!
I eat a helluva lot of chocolate all the time, thankfully I'm not fat, but I'm as skinny as hell sadly. I can't imagine a world with no chocolate.
Will we all end up eatung "Chunko-Honey" bars?

When I first saw the name of this thread I thought it was yet another funnily edited spam post.

Liquorice all-sorts are heavenly! Well, the colored bits are. Not the actual liquorice part. I just can't imagine it being better than chocolate. What about choc trays? So exciting!

 Re: The end of chocolate as we know it today!?!
Honestly I don't like liquorice, so that is me screwed, however I can't remember what it is, but there is some wild plant, that the roots taste like chocolate and its safe to eat, but can't remember what plant it is, think its a plant native to UK and Europe.
