Vegans Worry Cadbury's will put Dairy in G&B

Vegans felt safe with Green and Blacks in Craig Sam's hands. Although not vegan he is macrobiotic and started up some of the UK's finest Vegetarian Brands such as Whole Earth, Real Eat, and a string of others.



The fear is that Cadburys the kings of sugar and fat will add more Dairy into the G&B brand and move production to factories where chocolate will be contaminated by cow's milk.



"Cadburys also tend to use butter fat instead of real cocoa fat" says Tony Bishop Weston.



BBC NEWS | Business | Cadbury gobbles up organic rival: "Confectionery giant Cadbury Schweppes has bought organic chocolate maker Green & Black's at a time when demand for healthier products is booming.

The maker of Dairy Milk, Dr Pepper and 7-Up did not disclose the sum it paid for Green & Black's, but pundits estimate a price tag of about �20m.

Green & Black's is the fastest-growing confectionary brand, with 5.1% of the UK market for block chocolate.

It claims to have made the world's first organic chocolate.

Green & Black's also makes organic ice creams, biscuits and cooking products which are sold on the High Street through retailers such as Boots and Tesco.

The company sources the cocoa beans for one of its chocolates under Fairtrade agreements from countries such as Madagascar and the Dominican Republic. "
