Casual reminder that Mondelez is one of the very few large chocolate makers in the world that doesn't disclose what percentage of their chocolate is deforestation-free, and actively lobby against forestry protection laws.

They're bastards.

Mondelēz and all of the brands they own can go and fuck themselves. Handy don't buy list.

Shit I just bought a bunch of Cadbury stuff for Halloween because I thought it was the least bad option. I'm going to have to be more creative next year.

Do Mondelez make a vegan Toblerone? No? Then there's no copyright issue here. Fuck off and shove it up your arse, Mondelez.

Was a trademark issue, for which ingredients are irrelevant.

Fair, but it's a different shape, in a different shaped package, with a completely different word on it (it's not like a "Teebleroon" or something). There's literally zero chance that someone could look at this and think "That must be a Toblerone".

So, Mondelez can still fuck off and shove it up their arse.

And contrary to Frankie Boyle's advice: pull it out again straight away, like starting a lawnmower, before the corners have had a chance to melt

~~B&M~~ Poundland used to sell a bar called 'Twin Peaks' that was astonishingly like Toblerone but did much better flavours and variety (at the time). It was lush and at Christmas I always chose those over Toblerone.

The only place anyone buys a Toblerone anymore is in an Airport on the way home because they forgot to get a gift.

This bar bears absolutely no resemblence. I hope Mondelez gets eaten alive by their own greed.

Edit: Clearning up a mistake...it was Poundland, not B&M.

Fyi poundland now owned by the finance vultures that killed borders.

Not that its very relevant but we had a warning about mondelez above and i wanted to continue the theme of calling out awful companies.

All information is greatly appreciated.

Yeah, I just read about Poundland recently and how they are trying to buying it back from the owner.
