So the solution is to buy quality chocolate made from good beans grown in Central and South America, without child and slave labor. Seems pretty straightforward to me.

Yeah, that is cited in the article along with https://www.asyousow.org/environmental-health/toxic-enforcem...

Consumer Reports is just blogspam now. If you read anything they write about a topic you're expert in, you realise how much bullshit they spew. It's all just garbage to slap ads around.

I didn't see any ads on their chocolate article, and according to wikipedia they don't accept any advertising.

They sell the articles to other parties, so the more they churn out, the better. It's a content mill.

Below is an example of a factually incorrect article that they sold to the Washington Post:

> It's all just garbage to slap ads around.

The whole internet feels like that nowadays.
