This is all news to me and is upsetting to find to find some of my favorite brands using slave children as labor. Consider this you PSA for today.

However the last date looks to be 2009. These are certified http://transfairusa.org/products-partners/cocoa but doesn't look to be complete.

And a campaign to Hershey
