Chocolate Medals

Cadbury’s is set to see profits rise this summer as it is to be this year’s official supplier of chocolate medals for this year’s global games. The firm had briefly experimented with the idea of substituting this year’s medals with cheese in case the Americans got wind of what their medals were actually made of, but it was decided to keep costs down as cocoa beans could be processed directly outside the venues. It also meant that in the event of the Russians failing their drugs test after their events; rather than begin the legal process of stripping their medals and re-distributing them to athletes who competed fairly; they would simply whip up another batch so as not to disturb the Soviet state and risk further threats of a cold war situation. Meanwhile, Cadbury’s have increased their prices so that the general public are contributing to the creation of these chocolate medals.
