If even chocolate is getting worse, what does that tell us about our economy and the state of life’s small pleasures? Subscribe to our channel! http://goo.gl/0bsAjO In today’s episode, Vox host Jonquilyn Hill talks to New York Magazine writer Rachel Handler, who spent seven months investigating that question and uncovered a story that goes well beyond candy. Handler explains how manufacturing has changed, what chocolate reveals about corporate profits and inequality, and why even life’s smallest pleasures increasingly feel like luxuries. They explore the hidden costs of convenience, whether we’ve learned to like inferior products, and the indignity of being told nothing has changed, even when we can taste the difference. What do we lose when we stop expecting everyday things to be good? And what would it take to make a decent chocolate bar an ordinary pleasure everyone can afford?
