i will have to give it up. it will be easier if its crap anyway. Learning to pay for what you actually want vrs you think you want are two different things.
The thing is, they won’t ALL do it. The big names will. Real chocolate will become more of a luxury thing you have less often (which, to be fair is probably a good thing) and the established brands might survive on some blind brand loyalty, or die out.
You’re using the future tense but this is pretty much the way it already is. No one considers hersheys good chocolate. It’s getting slightly worse and people are acting like some goddess has been kicked off her pedestal. Its more like a dead dog has just had one more fly land on it.
I thought we were talking about a product that had become un-enjoyable a second ago. What enjoyment can an adult get out of chocolate flavored wax that they couldn’t get better somewhere else with a product they like, rather than one they used to like before it was made bad?
If all my chocolate options are actually brown wax, I don’t actually have any chocolate options.
There are plenty of companies still selling actual chocolate, and since it’s chocolate and not chocolate-flavoured sweets I think it’ll just become smaller and/or more expensive. Which is fine.
Well if they all do it, who are ya gonna run to?

Not eating candy is always an option for adults with an ounce of self control.
So is eating a moderate amount of higher quality and more expensive chocolate. Its okay to enjoy a treat every once in a while
NO. We must all SUFFER. It’s what The Lord intended.
I should become a baptist pastor this is fun.
Well swish swish. Even those with an ounce of self control sometimes also allow themselves an ounce of enjoyment. You should try it.

The comment I replied to was generalized to all candy.

I eat candy because it tastes good. If it all tastes like shit they why should I eat it?
I mean, you can make your own peanut butter cups…
If something turns to shit, you stop eating it and get something else I guess?
Trader Joe’s has giant Belgian chocolate bars, and far far better peanut butter cups with normal PB.
Ozempic!
