The Worst Candy Brand Is Sold In Illinois
Happy almost Halloween. Let's talk candy!
Who doesn't love a little candy in their life? Apparently there is enough hate for one brand in particular to justify making this list. I do wonder though, how do you judge if chocolate is bad? I'd imagine it's subjective, but apparently not. This is just in time for Halloween.
Not to long ago 24/7 Wall St. came out with a list of chocolate brands to avoid based on factors that go beyond just flavor.
So, you’re looking for a better chocolate that doesn’t taste like wax? Perhaps you want a chocolate that doesn’t mistreat and underpay those who work on the bean farms or lie about being fair trade on its packaging?
a report was also released on the Register called "Candy brands to avoid this Halloween" clearly there is a lot of talk about candy and morals recently.
