Watching: The wonderful John Oliver of Last Week Tonight has his own segment on chocolate, which covers a lot of the same ground but with better jokes…

Eating: Tony’s Chocolonely is a Dutch brand that was started by a journalist called Teun van de Keuken. He was looking into child labour in the chocolate industry, and he then wanted to prove that he could make delicious, profitable chocolate without child labour.
