Happy National Chocolate Day! Is your favorite brand made with child slave labor?

Chocolate is delicious and more often than not, has its origins in slave labor of poor children in West Africa.

As you enjoy chocolate today, and as you start making your Halloween candy purchases, keep in mind that Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana produce nearly 60% of the world’s cocoa each year, and latest estimates found 2 million children engaged in hazardous work on cocoa farms in these two countries.
