Chocolate manufacturers are pushing to change the change federal standards of what chocolate is. Currently, any substitution of cocoa butter results in a product that cannot be called chocolate.
The industry wants to change this to allow up to 5% of vegetable fat to save money. Apparently this is already the limit in Europe, which makes me wonder about "Real Swiss Chocolate."
Anyway, Mars Inc. has stated they refuse to change the amount of cocoa butter in their chocolate. Yep those M&Ms will still have actual chocolate in them!!
