because like myself I am Divine
So please let a bar be mine.
I will eat it without! my Valentine
I will indulge with great pleasure,
Enjoying a piece of treasure,
At my own dreamy leisure
Not forgetting where it was made
Thank-goodness for Fairtrade
Smart Planet too for being a very good crusade

I'm going to use the pity line. I'm a student with exams coming up and my most important piece of work for the whole year is due in on Friday. You must remember what it was like being a student, have pity and give me the chocolate so I can momentarily forget the woes of modern education.

I think i deserve this yummy chocolate because i have three screaming, fighting and noisy children who never give me 5 minutes peace !!!.

Because I need a lift...had a hard few years-two difficult births, second one where my daughter was 10wks early, followed by a hysterectomy which im still recovering from...depressing when im only 34. Have had to stop work and need cheering up. My son has been in hospital a lot recently-we seem to be having a major run of bad luck and need some good luck! Will share it with my girlfriends and spread the fairtrade word!

Some nice deserving, arty and funny reasons so far, thanks! Keep 'em coming... We'll start sending these out next week
08 February 2008 09:00pm
Well cocoa is from a bean, therefore it can be deemed as a vegetable extract, and vegetables and beans are good for you, so therefore chocolate is good for you.
That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!
08 February 2008 10:49pm
me and chocolate have a love to eat relasionship
it puts pounds on my hips but my lips carnt resist

09 February 2008 02:12am
If i try it i can recommend to others who will in turn recommend it to their friend, causing a domino effect leading to fairtrade dominating the market....i have connections lol
09 February 2008 09:44am
just because divine chocolate tastes so much nicer than fabric conditioner - which is the only free thing ive got through the post so far.
09 February 2008 05:43pm
Don't think anyone deserves it but me.
I want to be the one who eats it.
Very much want to get my hands on some chocolate.
I don'twant to share it.
Nothing tastes better.
Everyonen deserves a treat somethimes.
09 February 2008 06:35pm
I would lilke some fair trade chocolate as I am leading a fair trade project at a local school which is helping pupils set up their own fair trade cooperative where they sell fair trade chocolate and tea/coffee/fruit to their peers. I would love to have some chocolate to share with them to say thank you for all their hard work and to prove to them that fair trade chocolate is yummy!
10 February 2008 02:48pm
I would love the 70% Dark chocolate one,
Im not greedy so would share with some,
It would be divine if I were picked
but some of the entries on here.........
may have got me licked!
10 February 2008 05:08pm
I?m a chocolate rapper
And I need mo bars
But you won?t find me chewin? on no
Cadbury or Mars
Cos the farmers growing cocoa they?re kept real skint
And the company?s that use em they mean like flint
So I?m a choco rapper
And I?m in a real funk
Cos I gotta get my hands
On a Fairtrade chunk.
10 February 2008 07:03pm
I've never tasted chocolate in my entire life before so I deserve to win the yummy cocoa divine:) and experience the wonderful pleasure of it all. Love Pinocchio
10 February 2008 07:39pm
Im not smart and Im not witty
so this here rhyme may be a little.. bitty
My dentist always moans aand gives me grief
says i need to cut back on the sugar or ill have no teeth
But if its fairtrade then what can he say?
I got the farmers on my side so ill eat it all day
The milky taste would make my insides whirl
and the dark choccy bits are better than any twirl (*)
So smartplanet guys please pick me
and ill smother myself in the chocolate with gluttony
And if anyone says whats that lush smell?
ill say its fairtrade chocolate - the best they sell!
* or any other good chocolate brand
10 February 2008 08:39pm
seems a fair trade to me - a divine bar of choclate for a few words from me
11 February 2008 12:51am
I think you ought to send me some of this chocolate because I would then be able to share it with the children in my form at school (I am the form teacher) and make sure that they knew what brand it was. They would then all go out and pester their parents into buying more - instead of other less ethical brands.
I'm sure I could also get some reviews written by the kids, if you'd like.
11 February 2008 05:04pm
I suffer from severe SAD (seasonal Affective/adjustment Disorder) and as such have very low levels of serotonin during the winter months, seeing as Chocolate has many naturaly occuring opioid like chemicals in it that make one feel happy I realy deserve some bigtime.
11 February 2008 09:09pm
Be Fair, trade in this request for some Divine chocolate please!
I make no excuses for the fact that I am a 'must have chocolate' kind of lady, at least every night! Indulge me, I am a worthy!
12 February 2008 07:41am
I'm an addict!!!
I need my fix!!
since discovering divine chocolate, I dont buy anything else
12 February 2008 09:54pm
I really care about the farmers share and develpoing trade that's fair. This choccy has a taste and quality so abundant, my other bars will become redundant. It`s chosen with flair by people who care. So, pop a load in the post to me ...and I`ll have it with my cup of fair trade tea!
13 February 2008 01:58pm
I am from Africa - Lion country - and in this harsh place - i need the comfort of Divine Fruit and Nut Chocolate - My dream.
Take me away ....................
To far places .....................................
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
13 February 2008 03:40pm
I have given up chocolate and takeaways for lent and so by the time you send me this chocolate I will really need it!
13 February 2008 10:31pm
I am the worlds biggest chocolate fan, I think about chocolate all day every day, if you send me a bar i will munch my way through it, savour every bite and will most happily give you the most honest answer youll ever get on what i think about it.
13 February 2008 11:12pm
Because I promise to love Divine chocolate forever. I think that's a 'fair trade'
14 February 2008 03:34pm
because fairtrades are great
and i can share the chocolate with my mates
i love them so
there fabnifico
there great for me
i can have them with a cup of tea
divine's are great
you cant even eat them on a plate
cause they have extra taste
15 February 2008 03:56pm
I never win anything and I really need some Divine intervention in my life. Pleeease God, send me a sign that you have a heart. These wonderful chocolates would prove that life really can be fair-trade after all.
15 February 2008 07:30pm
I am presently Pregnant and anaemic, so I need the chocolate for medical reasons, I have been told it's very helpful for anaemia, the darker, yummier and diviner the better!
15 February 2008 10:47pm
Send me the chocolate and I'll write a review. Now that's a Fair Trade that you should pursue.
19 February 2008 01:17pm
