Chocolate shortage
#84
Well, hate to tell you guys - but I saw that on a news segment and it is for REAL. Not enough workers and a lot involved in preparing those cocoa beans, plus there may have been a weather element involved, like not enough rain or something. Can't remember exactly but you better start stockpiling!! Oh, well, Scarlet, maybe it will work itself out over time; we'll worry about that TOMORROW - would hate to see chocolate prices skyrocket. I use cocoa to make homemade fudge!

Dh said he heard that the whole aspargus crop is gone due to weather. Not one of my favorite veggies but I hate to see this happen. They are expensive anyway. The strawberry crop is Ok. My DS's Jr class sold them for a prom fund raisier & we were able to get some real nice ones & it didn't break the bank, so some things are good. What about the orange crop? Anybody heard.
