Chocolate sold in America is going through two changes, lab grown chocolate and genetically modified chocolate by gene slicing.
Here's what every major player in the chocolate industry's doing right now:
— Lindt is investing in lab-grown cocoa
— Mondelez, the maker of Cadbury, Oreos, and Toblerone, is investing in lab-grown cocoa butter
— Bernard Callebaut the world's largest cocoa processor, who supply chocolate to Hershey and Nestlé is investing in cocoa cell culture
— Mars partnered with a lab at UC Berkeley where CRISPR, the gene editing technology, was developed. They're going to modify the cacao tree's genetic structure by clipping out certain genes to make them more resistant to disease and drought tolerant.
