“A giant chocolate cupcake topped with whoppers.”

Is the cupcake ObamaCare? (Think about it)

The world will not run out of chocolate.

It will just be more expensive, which is just rationing-by-price, a most effective way of realigning supply with demand.

That is, if some government does not jump in and put a price freeze on chocolate, which would GUARANTEE almost complete removal from the market.

Just as the world will never run out of idiots or oil, it will never run out of chocolate. Market forces will prevail.

There is also the possibility that the claim, “the world is running out of chocolate, is based upon a desire for a price increase by producers; i.e. an artificial shortage like meat, gas, ice cream.(Try to buy a 1/2 gallon of ice cream they only sell 1.75 quarts.) The so called “Free Market” exists only in the minds of the delusional.

“Before The World Runs Out Of Chocolate”

Really not sure I wanna live in that world.................fwiw Hershey’s is unmatched, whether it be bar chocolate or syrup. Some of my best childhood memories were when I drank Hershey’s syrup right out of a can that had been opened with a church key, nothing like it.........just my opinion.

I remember doing that, too, lol.

My favorite is Dove dark. I just bought a bar of Lindt Excellence 85% cocoa; I like the bitter flavor with just a little sweetness.

I love chocolate, but it gives me severe headaches and nausea. Y’all can have my share.

Chopped up Dove dark and Ghiradelli dark make the best chocolate chip cookies. I haven’t gone back to semi sweet since trying them.

I used to love Hershey’s but it doesn’t have the same texture. Seems a little more slimey not crisp. Don’t like it anymore. Oh, well. could be subconscious since it’s made in China now.

Am I the only person in the world who finds that chocolate tastes bad?
