🍫 Cadbury Dairy Milk: where Britain’s food meets global corporations 🍫

This isn’t nostalgia — the UK’s favourite chocolate really has changed in the last 25 years.

2000-10:
• Fats mainly from cocoa butter & milk fat
• Higher cocoa solids (27%+)
• Less sugar, fewer additives
• A large share of ingredients were UK-sourced (milk & beet sugar)

👉 Estimated UK ingredient content: ~45–50%

Now:
• Vegetable fats added – including palm & shea oil
• Lower cocoa solids (20% minimum)
• Sugar now ~50% of the bar
• Texture often described as “waxy” or “oily”

👉 Estimated UK ingredient content: ~25–30%

Since the takeover of Cadbury by Kraft (now Mondelez International), reformulation and cost-cutting have become impossible to ignore in common with strategies employed by all global food brands.

🪪 And you’re paying more for it.
Inflation adjusted prices have also increased gram for gram by around 35% in the same time frame.

➡️ Higher real prices. Lower quality. Less British sourcing.

This mirrors a wider shift across ultra-processed foods — cheaper global ingredients, more palm oil, more sugar and additives to deceive.

🌴 Palm oil comes with real costs:
⚠️ Rainforest deforestation
⚠️ Wildlife loss
⚠️ Higher carbon emissions
⚠️ Harm to local communities

🤔 People aren’t imagining it.

We’re paying more for food that’s more processed, less British, and worse for the planet.
