Each bar is wrapped in cellophane, which are then wrapped in the normal outer packaging. To make the 4 pack, they simply took 2x two packs and put them on a cardboard tray,and then wrapped those.

I don't think I've ever gone through so much unwrapping for candy.

It also has alot of palm-oil in it so it is another reason to avoid it.

    Fuck palm oil and any product using it, just like fuck nestle in general.

    Even WWF doesn't think avoiding palm oil is a good solution. Not short term and definitely not long term

    Palm is the most efficient crop for producing a wide range of fats. Replacing it with some other source of fat will require more land and water, and disrupt nature in another part of the world.

    Thank you for the very informative link.

    I think it's fair to say those brands will source from the cheapest, scummiest places and it doesn't matter what "certificate" sticker is on the box.

    But it is so hard to avoid them where I live :/ Even the fairtrade, vegan and responsible green washed products are from those 3...

    And it's not vegan, and it's not made from fair cocoa, so two more reasons

    It's milk chocolate (coated at least)... I've tried alternatives and frankly white, dark and flavoured vegan chocolates are good enough but there's nothing close to or as good as milk chocolate so at this point it's like saying "boycott steak because it's not vegan"... It's a fact, sure, but not a reason against it for people who aren't already vegan, and vegans are already boycotting it away, so it's a reason for nobody?

    That said the fair cocoa point is very valid.
