Move on from milk chocolate: Some chocolates are made with cow’s milk, which is stolen from mother cows who produced it to nourish their newborn babies. There’s nothing sweet about that. Whey protein and whey powder are milk derivatives that are often found in candies as well. Other items in the candy aisle, like Snickers and Milky Way bars, use eggs in their recipes, and while chicks are cute and fuzzy, egg production is not.
