      Not sure it matters that much, as the entire candy industry is operated by terrible companies. Is Mondelez International that much worse than Nestle or Unilever, for example?

        I loathe Unilever for what they did to Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream.

        Cunts.

        As per USDA food regulations, hard pack ice cream can have up to 50% volume of air incorporated into it.

        Before B&J’s got bought out, you’d see maybe 10% (God knows I accidentally let enough pints melt over the years to see how much was in the container once I remembered - ahh… shit! - that I’d left the ice cream to melt…) then after Unilever bought them, I did the same thing - forgot to get a bag with the ice cream out of the car in time - FUCK! - and opened it to discover that it was now down by at least a third in volume.

        Oh hell no!

        Not bought it since.

        Fuck you, Unilever.

        Though I can say that hatred makes sticking to diets easier. Doubly so when it’s a hatred for the company combined with a hatred for the way they make chocolate.
