Known and popular – but not necessarily good

An old test by ÖKO-TEST shows that well-known and popular chocolate brands don’t automatically have to be good: in the 2019 study, Milka and Lindt failed with “poor”. For example, the excessive content of mineral oil ingredients and the lack of transparency in cocoa production have been criticized.

On the other hand, Ritter Sport did well here, although there are also discounts in terms of transparency.

The difference in results should come as no surprise: depending on the standards tested and the priorities you set yourself, the products perform differently.
