Yesterday, we gave you free hot dogs. Today, we bring your free chocolate. Dark chocolate. Milk chocolate too, hopefully. (Whatever, we still love us some milk chocolate. With caramel. And nougat.) Anyway, Mission Mission reports that "volunteers from the Bay Area Fair Trade Coalition and TransFair USA will be handing out free Divine Chocolate Thursday evening from 5-7 p.m. outside of four BART stations: 24th & Mission, Montgomery, Rockridge and Ashby Street."
MM goes on to point out that this month is, coincedentally, also Fair Trade Month. We had no idea! Here are some tips on how to prepare for a fair-trade Halloween. Find out where to purchase fair-trade certified candy treats here.
