 Don't count on it sis. I been very busy with a project. If there a shortage of chocolate, then it means war and Armageddon follows soon after it..

If you notice all the new products, that have added chocolate, as in cereal, you can pretty well see the shortage cause.

Especially since the nutritional segment claimed that chocolate helps keep your heart healthy. That is the reason I give for my addiction to dark chocolate. Loving Dove. ;-)

A shortage on chocolate? Y'all kidding me right? Tell me it ain't so! Please! I think starting today I'm going to begin hoarding it up. .

The end of chocolate...as we know it ? Nah...just tinier packages and outrages prices !

 

The end of the world ?  Yeah...bring it on !

I thought the world was going to end when they stopped making Twinkies!  Now this!  Let's face it - I'm surprised EVERYTHING we eat isn't suffering from a "shortage".  When's the last time we read a headline that said "World has plenty of  ********** for everyone!" (put in your own food)

Bacon!

Bacon!

Bad futures for bacon. 

Bacon, previously listed on the stock exchange as 'Pork Belly' has become so volatile of a commodity that trading was stopped.

Pork Bellies are no longer listed. 

Best run down to the store and buy all you can get!    

Remember what happened to GM.

Come to think about it, Obama's last big move might be to bail out Pork Bellies. 

It worked for GM.

Good thing about both chocolate and bacon though - you can do this yourself at home and it's healthier for you.

Better add Cauliflower to list. Just saw on news $8.99 for one head of organic.
