McVitie的重塑品牌俱乐部和企鹅饼干, 在工厂关闭和重新装修后, 由于可可含量降低, 将“巧克力”从标签中去除。 McVitie’s rebranded Club and Penguin biscuits, removing "chocolate" from labels due to lower cocoa content, following factory closure and reformulation.

McVitie重新命名了俱乐部和企鹅饼干,在加纳和象牙海岸可可价格不断上涨和收成欠佳的驱动下,重新涂层减少了可可质量,增加了牛油和棕榈油,因此将“巧克力”从标签中删除。 McVitie’s has rebranded its Club and Penguin biscuits, removing “chocolate” from labels due to a reformulated coating with less cocoa mass and more shea and palm oil, driven by rising cocoa prices and poor harvests in Ghana and Ivory Coast. 改变意味着饼干不再符合 合法的巧克力标准, 虽然品味测试确认 口味仍然相似。 The change means the biscuits no longer meet legal chocolate standards, though taste tests confirm the flavor remains similar. 这一转变继2022年关闭格拉斯哥工厂之后,结束了192年的苏格兰遗产,耗资470个工作岗位。 The shift follows the 2022 closure of the Glasgow factory, ending a 192-year Scottish legacy and costing 470 jobs. 母公司普拉迪斯(Pladis)还向格拉斯哥市议会秘密捐赠了100万英镑。 Pladis, the parent company, also made a secret £1 million donation to Glasgow City Council. 此外,由于可可奶油含量低,McVitie的白色消化剂不能再贴上“白色巧克力”标签。 Additionally, McVitie’s white digestives can no longer be labeled “white chocolate” due to low cocoa butter content.
