Chocolate Underground
With the establishment of the Good For You Party's authoritarian regime, unhealthy foods and sugar have been banned. As a result, the bakery Smudger Moore's father owns is suffering financially from being unable to sell any of their typical sweet menu items. Smudger's friend Huntley Hunter is also frustrated by the prohibition, as he cannot keep a promise he made to his late father. Angered by the unjust world they live in, the two young boys set out to break the new social order—but the uphill battle they are faced with is a lot more than they bargained for.

I appreciate your reply. I can only speak for my own take, but maybe there is something worth arguing with with @Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net after all, if hopefully from a less incendiary position. It isn't my take to argue; I don't even know what western baking goods would look like without sugar (pre-colonial honey, maybe?).
there ARE genuinely tasty vegan non-sugar sweeteners that afaik don't even feed into diabetic conditions so i have no idea what i'm arguing about in the first place
I somehow forgot about those myself until now.
I'm not actually that big into sweets in general; I prefer other flavors overall, even for pleasure/comfort food.
ok, maybe there is a point to be made about banning Big Sugar
edit: ok, but seriously, neither you nor @Dirt_Owl deserved that. I'm really sorry. I hope both of you are happy and safe and don't let my cringeposting drag you down or hurt you. Thank you all for being patient
Yeah, go for it guys. I'm more than okay with people educating me when I say something silly. People are more than welcome to disagree with me on this one.
