That is the best news I have ever learned from mumsnet.......WOW.......thankyou!!!

It's great isn't it? Ds2 informed me of this today - they'd learned about it in assembly at school - and I was thrilled. Over dinner I told dh about it.
But apparently it was him who'd been in to school to do the assembly

We do talk to each other sometimes, honest!

noonki - it's funny as I don't actively boycott Nestle stuff, I understand the reasons for it but it's just something I've chosen not to do. However like you say Nestle with Fair Trade stuff is just plain weird.

Faq - I agree, nestle with a conscience.not.

But fabulous news a bout cadbury.

The oxfam chocolate is AMAZING

Oh bloody hell FAQ I love chocolate covered raisins. What's more, DP hates the things so they're mine, all mine!

<Distracts FAQ and pinches a handful>

Marla - my "local" shop is now a Co-op and I recently discovered their chocolate coated raisins - big bag for just under £1 - bloody marvelous - and I gorged myself on them happily in the knowledge that they were ethcal too

Ooh.

I used to get Fairtrade chocolate bars from the Co-Op and they were fucking great

That is truly fantastic news - I don't really like a lot of the Fair Trade chocolate much (though happily buy bananas, coffee etc) and this way DH will happily tuck into some Fairtrade choc!
