It certainly tastes better, but is it really "Fairly Traded"?
Or, is it just "more fairly traded than Nestle"?
Do we have any local / semi-local purveyors of Fair Trade chocolate?
Whole Foods & A Southern Season carry Dagoba (yummy) - any others?

Happy Halloween!

On Monday, October 31, come by Internationalist for a piece of fair trade
chocolate (while supplies last).

During Halloween companies like Nestle USA enjoy their BIGGEST sales to
children. Unfortunately, chocolate is no treat for the hundreds of thousands
of child cocoa laborers that work helping their families on farms or even toil
as
slaves. There is a solution -- Fair Trade Certified Chocolate! Fair Trade
guarantees farmers a fair price for their cocoa, so they can feed their
families and keep their kids in school. Fair Trade does not allow abusive
child labor or forced labor. Fair Trade Chocolate is now widely available
but big chocolate companies like Nestle USA still refuse to sell it.
