Candy Believe It Or Not

-About 4 days after Christmas, a store in England put chocolate Easter candies (eggs, chicks, and bunnies) out for sale next to the marked down holiday candy.

-By fighting soil degradation and finding better ways to dry cacao beans, the cocoa producers of the Ivory Coast plan improvement in quality of their crop. Now 17% of the cocoa crop does not meet quality standards.

-Cosmetics, candy and food labels must disclose it their products use color additives made from insects by 2011. There have been reports of allergic reactions, some life-threatening with these products, according to the FDA.

-One company has not changed wrapper on a chocolate candy since 1918. But they produce 50,000 every day – seems there is no need to change anything.

Chocolate is wonderful, everyone loves chocolate, and a day without chocolate is like a day without sunshine!!
