Default Chocolate?
So my friend sends me an email with a link to a news article: we're using more cocoa than we grow, so in 20 years, chocolate will be rare delicacy that the average person won't be able to afford.

Deciding to look on the bright side, be positive for a change, I email her back and tell her in 20 years I'll be dead, and I won't care.

In the meantime, I'll stock up.

Wait a minute. If I could get my doctor to write a prescription, I could get 90 days worth of the generic for $10, or the Dove for $65. Just like Copaxone. Hmmmm. What's the phone number for the big drug companies? Oh, I remember: 1-800-WHOCARES

If this lack of product does happen, perhaps it would be worth it to see if it can be grown in green houses as another cash crop. I don't know anyone who doesn't like it, so maybe we can figure out a way to increase supply. That plant is sure a gift to the world. YUM Ginnie

Yeah, we may have to grow our own, like MJ.
