Fair trade.
Ha ha, what a joke, a bunch of hippies pay more for their chocolate and think they're changing the world, am I right?

Oh, wait, I'm not.

If it is "a bunch of hippies" doing this
...why have all the mainstream producers like Cadbury's and the Co-op gone over to fair trade cocoa?

Massive consumer demand, that's why.

I think massive may be an overstatement.
I buy as much fairtrade as I can, but the majority of shoppers have no interest in it. In my local Co-op, all the fair trade stuff gets remaindered, along with the organic items. The shoppers just want fags, booze, lottery tickets and cheap food.
