Okay, let’s face it. You have been fooled all these years making you believe stupid and ridiculous lies about health benefits of chocolate. In fact, these business industries care not about your welfare but about their own revenues and benefits. A good example is Milton Hershey, an American confectioner, whose chocolate company was seen as a mere confectionary.

Milton hated this fact and tried acting smart. So, he covered his chocolate bar with a stupid statement through which he hoped to fool people saying that consuming an ounce of chocolate can boost your energy much better than a pound of meat can.

That’s not all, he even asked the Supreme court to officially make chocolate a food.Since he had no evidence, his request was rejected. If you are questioning how true is the statement of Milton, then it’s good to know that it is no more than one dark side of the chocolate world.

Another example is that of National Confectioners association who brought another lie to the world saying that candy can help you shed extra weight and save your tooth from decay. This sounds Crazy but its marketing!

These are only a few examples that show how the public health is taken for granted in the world of business.

Did you know that Mars is the biggest chocolate company on the entire planet? It is really insane how the company started from the scratch to become the biggest and most successful one in the world. It was first established by Franc C.Mars who started selling sugar-coated twigs to schoolchildren.

Later and after his reunion with his son Forrest, Frank sent Forrest to Europe in order to expand the business. Frank passed away and Forrest opened a very small one-room factory in which he stumbled upon the innovation of the candy-coated chocolates with the aid of Hershey guy, whose full name is Bruce Murrie.

Forrest offered Bruce Murrie partnership and even suggested putting his name on the successful and famous candy-coated chocolates known today as M&M’s.
