The very word hints of the forbidden and a taste of the decadent. Yet the story behind the chocolate bar is rarely one of luxury. -- aFrom the thousands of children who work on plantations to the smallholders who harvest the beans, Chocolate Nations reveals the hard economic realities of our favourite sweet. This vivid and gripping exploration of the reasons behind farmer poverty includes the human stories of the producers and traders at the heart of the West African industry. Orla Ryan shows how only a tiny fraction of the cash we pay for a chocolate bar actually makes it back to the farmers, and she sheds light on what Fairtrade really means on the ground. -- aProvocative and eye-opening, Chocolate Nations exposes the true story of how the treat we love makes it onto our supermarket shelves. -- Book Jacket. 0aCocoa tradezGhana. 0aCocoa tradezCôte d'Ivoire. 0aCocoa tradezAfrica, West. 0aCacao growerszGhanaxEconomic conditions. 0aCacao growerszCôte d'IvoirexEconomic conditions. 0aCacao growerszAfrica, WestxEconomic conditions. 0aChocolate. 7aChocolate.2sears 0aAfrican arguments. a111214 aN a20230822095114.0 c4537d4537 00104070acutlibbcutlibd2023-09-21l0oHD 9200 .G62 RYApBK0037882r2023-09-21 00:00:00w2023-09-21yBK
