Yeah, unfortunately this has been talked about for a while. I avoid buying Hersheys products because of it.

Absolutely sickening.

Do whatever makes you feel good about yourself.

You shouldn't stop there though, Mars and Nestle's are implicated as well.

Since they are all crappy chocolate, anyway, no hardship there.

Well at least these kids are lucky to live in a country where their freedoms are not being stolen by government regulations.

more of a Reese's guy myself anyway.

everyone gets upset when there are slaves yet the UN climate change deal takes money from rich countries and gives it to the same people who enslave their people. Now everyone favors that deal, yet they are upset when they see a kid as a slave.

And in addition to the abuse of children, there is the matter of PGPR that Hershey uses. It is just one more "harmless" chemical you can choose to eat or not.
