Upon closer examination, the ingredients list reveals the presence of multiple types of added sugars, including both regular sugar and corn syrup. The latter is particularly concerning due to its elevated negative health implications. Furthermore, the chocolate bar contains palm oil, a controversial ingredient due to both health concerns and its environmental impact, as palm oil production is a well-known driver of deforestation and habitat destruction.

The inclusion of natural and artificial flavors, along with soy lecithin, adds to the tally of potentially harmful additives. Specifically, artificial flavors are known to be worrisome due to their synthetic origin and the lack of transparency regarding their composition.
