People are only just realising what the name of a famous chocolate company actually is, and it's blowing their minds | The Sun

IT'S dramatically increased in popularity over the past few years.

In fact, lots of people have admitted they're more likely to pick up a bar over Dairy Milk or Galaxy.


But one woman has left people stunned after revealing the error that so many of us are making when it comes to the company's name.

Sharing a TikTok video in which she zoomed in on the bar in question, Grace wrote over the top: "Is it just us who thought it was called Tony's Chocoloney?

"Or can we just not read."

"Well, this is embarrassing," Grace added in the caption.

"No cut the cameras it WAS chocoloney!" one wrote.

"NO WAY WHAT? It‘s ChocoLONEY," another added.

"I was just saying this the other day, I swear that it has always been chocoloney!!!" a third wrote.

"It has always been chocoloney I swear!" another wrote.

"I live in the Netherlands so I see that chocolate EVERY damn day… I SWEAR it's always been chocoloney?? But it's not??" someone else said.

While another admitted: "I would have bet my house it was chocoloney!"

"I think its a batch typo, it IS chocoloney," someone else raged.

To which Grace replied: "Haha my friends exact words were 'look they've changed the name!'"

"These comments are giving us life," the Tony's Chocolonely UK account added.

"Why can none of us read?!" Grace laughed.

Tony's Chocolonely came about after Dutch journalist Teun (Tony) van de Keuken started investigating the use of slavery in the cocoa industry for the consumer watchdog show Keuringsdienst van Waarde.

During his research, he discovered that the majority of chocolate on supermarket shelves was made from cocoa harvested by slaves.

And he then decided to take action and create his own line of Fairtrade chocolate.

The very first Tony’s Chocolonely bars hit shelves in 2005, and in 2006 the company registered with the Chamber of Commerce.
