So the source is questionable at best, but still. No more chocolate, ever?

    I hope not. While I no longer eat chocolate candies and chocolate bars, I still eat Nutella which is made from Cocoa as well as hazelnuts...

    If it wasn't for the fact that I already know the Daily Star is an actual newspaper, I'd think the article is a parody.

    That is why owning Cocoa farms in West Africa is a great investment. The supply won't run out, it will just become very strained. So farm + chocolate manufacturing business + women craving = great retirement.
