Cadbury's Dairy Milk is now Fairtrade

And I have eaten some, and it tastes a bit better for it being Fairtrade, although I think that's psychological. I'd post the picture I had to prove it, but currently I have no way to transfer it from my phone to the internet. However it is in my local corner shop in Lowestoft.

Only took them 4 months!

More money in the right places. They announced it in Fairtrade Fortnight in March/April time, but I can't remember if it's across the whole Dairy Milk range or just the milk chocolate bar.

But Cadbury's doing it is a big wake-up call to the other big chocolate manufacturers, i.e. Nestlé and Masterfoods. If Cadbury's can do it on their biggest selling chocolate bar, why can't they?
