Starbucks has 23 drinks containing chocolate on its menu. Consider the powder sprinkled on many thousands of cappuccinos sold every day, to home powder mixes and treats. tarbucks sources its large supply of cocoa from West Africa where 90% of its forest cover has been taken down largely due to cocoa farming. The average cocoa farmer earns less than US$1.2O a day leaving them well below the poverty line. Meanwhile, Starbucks has made profits of over $21 billion alone in 2022, putting them well within a position to ensure that the company’s cocoa purchases are ethical.
