    Tonys Chocolonely:

    Ingredients:
    sugar, dried whole milk, cocoa butter, cocoa mass, emulsifier (soya lecithin)

    £3.60 for 180g of mostly Sugar.

    You can get 90% Lindt for £1.60 per 100g. Which is mostly chocolate and not sugar, and still 'FairTrade'.

    • always wondered about those, appealing packaging thospl33nidoru
    • If you want to make money, sell sugar.shapesalad
    • Like selling CrackYakuZoku
    • Just looking at the label you know it’s junk. Design success right there.monospaced
    • It's actually not bad, and of course ss is missing the wood for the trees here, because the company makes what people actually want. Not ss tho, obvs.Nairn
    • Their dark chocolate's ok and caramel sea salt one's quite filthy. https://tonyschocolo…Nairn
    • Personally, I love dark chocolate, but to think that Lindt is some paragon is.. well, it undermines the attempt at pretention.Nairn
    • Pretention? IT'S NOT HOW YOU SAY IT, NAIRN, YOU FUCKPIG. 'Pretension'.

      *undermines own conceits*

    • I’m just saying that the label screams that it is probably not for discerning chocolate connoisseurs, which is a design success. No surprise it’s just sugar.monospaced
    • I'm not sure I agree with that. Also, it's not 'just sugar' as opposed to other brands of comparable quality that are as equally not 'just sugar'.Nairn
    • Label communicates hipster (a meaningless term these days, but),
      hipster = overpriced, but quality

    • I eat it sometimes. It's very good. But very also overpriced.jagara
    • wifey loves it and she is a choc freak. i don’t mind the taste, but hate the design.scruffics
