- Vinnl 2y agoTony's Chocolonely is an interesting brand, because its origin lies in a Dutch TV show investigating consumer goods. At some point, the presenter ("Tony" [1]) decided to sue himself for buying slave chocolate, and then decided to see how hard it actually is to make slave-free chocolate - and Tony's Chocolonely was born.
