Website comment[edit]

I would like to add a link to a website that I am in the process of creating. It is a tribute & resource of Historical photographs & memorabelia. (Postcards, Advertising signs and any other related items/history). The website is www.frychocolate.co.uk. I welcome any comments....— Preceding unsigned comment added by Linton1977 (talk • contribs)

Eureka! Edible Chocolate[edit]

"In 1847, the Fry's chocolate factory, located in Keynsham, near Bristol, England, moulded the first ever chocolate bar suitable for widespread consumption."

What does that mean? They've been making chocolate for over a hundred years and then finally came up with something edible? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.72.125.82 (talk) 13:56, 7 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wer hats erfunden (German)

Milk chocolate bars were already in 1839 in Dresden, Saxony produced. 178.3.30.47 (talk) 17:33, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Slavery and chocolate[edit]

Nothing about the Frys and other chocolate manufacturers being Quakers, yet also being aware that the raw material was being produced by slavery in Africa? 80.0.109.153 (talk) 00:34, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Are J.S. Fry & Sons really closed?[edit]

I think J.S Fry & Sons are still an active company. I quite often see their chocolate bars for sale, at Crich Tramway Museum there is a sweet shop that sells them. --Macaroniking (talk) 13:11, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
