That and the Reese's Pieces one.They played that commercial a LOT during Saturday morning cartoons. Probably why I'm in the same boat.
Oh, and Levi's (the one with Tarzan, the Samurai, the little logo aliens, etc).

Ahhh, yes; the good old dayswhen the flavor was gone you could still blow bubbles without getting it stuck to everything.
I know I am monstrously late with this, as I do not usually follow this thread. But if you wish to discuss whether the changes in cocoa bean price are due to exploitative labor practices, as opposed to regular market forces, please let me know and I'd be happy to exchange views.A lot of this is because chocolate was artificially cheap because it was farmed using exploitative labor practices. That, and I suspect that China's development has increased it's consumption, and thus there's more demand for a limited supply.
Nothing I can google up about hoarding that's less than three years old. Anything your google-fu can come up with?I thought it was due to hoarding? Like the 80’s silver thing, but with cocoa?
Nope, not on my initial search. Nothing since 2015. But I also didn’t see anything to definitively explain the recent plummet, either. Lots of theories, though.Nothing I can google up about hoarding that's less than three years old. Anything your google-fu can come up with?
Thank you for the information. An approach where the issue is laid bare in the beginning will certainly serve to permit all present to draw up their conclusions as to what may be the appropriate position to reach.https://www.icco.org/about-us/inter...ws/390-monthly-review-of-the-market-2018.html
I think there are too many variables, but last year's drop in prices caused some producers to look into other crops, and this year there's a bump in demand, but a drop in supply (by 4%), so the price has gone up.
In short, it's a volatile commodity.
While there are many who benefit from telling a specific story and explaining it their way, I don't think it's something that's easily blamed on any one aspect.
Oh, what the fuck?
Yes that is a guy taking a selfie & making sure to catch in the background the paramedics giving medical treatment to a woman who has just been hit by a fucking train!
Look who's talking!
All I see is a bunch of cabl-OHMYGODHah, I don't have a particular fear of snakes, but fuuuuuuuck that.
