The world’s biggest chocolate-maker says we’re running out of chocolate!

There's no easy way to say this: You're eating too much chocolate, all of you.
And it's getting so out of hand that the world could be headed towards a potentially disastrous (if you love chocolate) scenario if it doesn't stop.

Last year, the world ate roughly 70,000 metric tons more cocoa than it produced.
By 2020, the two chocolate-makers warn that that number could swell to 1 million
metric tons, a more than 14-fold increase; by 2030, they think the deficit could
reach 2 million metric tons.
