I've seen articles on this for some time now but I finally have an opportunity to write this post. The Chicago Tribune reported today (though the story has been around for months) that some members of the food industry are lobbying to change what goes into making chocolate. They would like to be able to make chocolate with vegetable oil rather than...CACAO BUTTER. Am I wrong or is this a defining ingredient in chocolate. Please don't let these people hijack our food!!! Click here to make your concern known to the FDA.

SayWhaHuh?!?!?
You can take away my TransFat.
You can try to get me to use Sweet 'N Low and not sugar.
And maybe one day, I'll use margarine instead of real, Paula Deen butter.
But hey FDA! Get your hands of my Hershey Bar!
This is absurd!! Chocolate with no cacao butter would be like a sugar cookie with no sugar. Or Coke-a-cola with no cocaine.
Well... scratch that last one...
Well said my friend. Chocolate comes about through processing CACO BEANS!!! If they switch to vegetable oil we might have to call it vegocolate...just insane.
btw did you say Paula Deen butter?...doesn't she love lard too?
WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF THE VELVEETA!?!?!?!?!
