It's pretty simple, the dude in the article was consuming dark chocolate. I suppose they were implying it's a commonly pushed idea that the dark chocolate is healthy because it has a lot less sugar and has some pluses like antioxidants. That would push people to buy it like the dude suing because of heavy metal levels in Hershey's dark chocolate.
- achrono 4y agoThere is no reason to go into the motivation of chocolate consumption. Yes, it's ironic if you get poisoned by lead by eating something you think is saving you from calories -- but that to me is almost a deviously mocking tangent to take in a news article, and not a plain innocent fact. Unless of course Reuters here is trying to capture some of the standup/news market share.
- lern_too_spel 4y agoMilk chocolate doesn't have high levels of heavy metals, but dark chocolate does. Dark chocolate has purported health benefits, but milk chocolate does not. The plaintiffs allege they bought dark chocolate because they thought it would be good for their health, but if they knew about the heavy metals contained in the dark chocolate, they would not have purchased it.
