Like Willy Wonka

















We toured a couple of factories last week. The first produced chocolate cupcakes with nut slivers (these are actually my preferred snack with my morning Nescafe… I know). The second factory was making chocolate bars filled with caramel. Kid.01 was in heaven, these businesses marry his passions: science, robots, and food.
The factories were quite overwhelming: very hot, noisy, only male workers, and smelly. One minute the aroma was chocolatey, the next machine-oily, then chicken-shitty (in the egg room). I felt faint. What a place to work! But extremely clean--you can feel good about eating Turkish snack foods.
