    Hands Off Our Chocolate

    We've always lured people into activism through chocolate...now it's time to be activists for chocolate.

    Time is short - today is the deadline: act now to save our chocolate!

    What? You haven't heard? The Chocolate Manufacturers Association wants to change the legal definition of chocolate to allow them to use cheaper, artificial ingredients in our yummy treats.

    Not cool.

    The Administration has messed with everything good about America, from our Constitution and our global reputation to our National Parks and our scientific exploration. Now they want to mess with our chocolate as well.

    You can stop this from happening -- but today is the final day to comment! Tell the FDA to preserve some of the sweetness of our democracy.

    Or else who knows what will be in the Ben & Jerry's ice cream you get for free when you become a Working Assets customer.

    I bet that Ben and Jerry's would always use premium ingredients (anyone tried the cinnamon bun ice cream, yet? It's outstanding), but still, this is crazy.

    I can imagine some other companies making less desirable chocolate, then.

    Thanks for posting this, Justin.
