Save Our Chocolate
http://dontmesswithourchocolate.guittard.com/
From Slashdot: ""The US Food and Drug Administration is considering redefining 'chocolate' to allow substitution of vegetable oil ($0.70/ lb.) for cocoa butter ($2.30/lb.), and whey protein for dry whole milk. There are already standard terms to differentiate these products from chocolate, such as 'chocolatey' and 'chocolate-flavored.' The change was requested by the industry group Chocolate Manufacturers of America. Leading the resistance to this change is high-end chocolate maker Guittard, with significant grass-roots support from the Candyblog. The FDA is taking consumer comments until April 25" (tomorrow). -- The High Weirdness Project http://www.modemac.com
