 Chocolates Could Run Out by 2020
Worldwide shortage of cocoa could make chocolates extinct by 2020, say sources.
Industry expert Angus Kennedy said that the chocolate bars may get replaced by slabs of palm oil and vegetable fats packed with raisins and nougat by 2020 as there is a worldwide shortage of cocoa, the Mirror reported.

As the cocoa crops are being replaced by more profitable rubber plantations, the future of chocolate bars looks bleak.
