Leading British expert Angus Carnegie announced that the favorite of many chocolates may disappear in 7 years due to the global shortage of cocoa.
The expert's research has shown that cocoa plantations have given way to rubber plantations in recent years, which does not bode well for chocolate.
Rubber has proven to be a more preferred crop because it is more profitable. Data from the last 2 years show that the price of cocoa beans has increased by 63% and the price of whole milk powder - by 20%.
Carnegie revealed that if chocolate really disappears in 2020, it will be replaced with chocolate bars made from palm oil, vegetable fats and nougat.
The British specialist said that he had already tried the blocks in question in the future and revealed that they had nothing to do with chocolate.
According to him, manufacturers will try to cover up the lack of cocoa with extra sugar, because it is the cheapest ingredient, but this will only make the product sweeter without bringing it closer to the temptation of cocoa.
The most typical ingredients of chocolate - cocoa and cocoa butter in the future will be replaced by nougat and raisins, selected by manufacturers again because they are cheap ingredients.
Due to the presence of more vegetable fat, the chocolate bars will not break, but will be very sticky and will bend easily.
Previous research has shown that chocolate is the only food that people cannot live without.
According to the study, sales of the cocoa temptation have increased in recent years, with 500 new chocolate products launched in the UK last year alone.
Peter Eaton, a marketing expert at one of the island's largest market analysis companies, says chocolate is also a reason many people stop at gas stations while traveling to shop.
Manufacturers around the world continue to offer ever newer temptations to attract consumers, regardless of the economic situation.
