CBS News found children in Ghana as young as 5 years old using machetes nearly as big as themselves to harvest the cocoa beans that end up in some of America's most-loved chocolates like M&Ms and Snickers. Debora Patta reports.
Cocoa is so obscure and bitter and gets processed so heavily to produce even a close approximation of “chocolate”, why don’t we just use broccoli? Process broccoli into broccolate, stop underpaying cocoa farmers who have to break the law and impoverish their own families and workers to make ends meet. Fuckn corpo clowns.

Because it’s cheaper to use child labor than synthesize addictive phenylethylamine and add it to processed broccoli.
