OK, boys and girls...I just saw this on the news and I'm very worried...they are saying that there could be a chocolate shortage :thumbdown:
The growers don't want to grow the chocolate plants because other plants are more profitable.
I wonder how long chocolate would keep if I stocked up now???
I'm a dark chocolate lover, and I think that that freezes better because of less cocoa butter.
Life will not be worth living without CHOCOLATE!

Maybe if we rent one of those freezer trucks? I wonder if the Storage place has any freezer units...
Then the next question...fabric or chocolate???
