replace toblerone in logo

Open AJPfleger opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

The toblerone chocolate bar in the logo might be out dated, as it probably stopped being a Swiss symbol.

«Swiss made» ist nur, was wirklich in der Schweiz hergestellt wird. Weil Toblerone bald Teile seiner Produktion auslagert, muss die Schokolade anders benannt und bebildert werden.

Weil die Produktion von der Schweiz in die Slowakei verlegt wird, geht der dreieckigen Schokolade die "Swissness" verloren

Switzerland’s iconic Matterhorn mountain, sometimes called the “Toblerone mountain”, is to disappear from the packaging of the famous Swiss chocolate bar, as it is also being made abroad.

Rules about "Swissness" dictate some products cannot use national symbols if not exclusively made in the country

Possible Solutions

Thinking of other Swiss symbols to add:

  • Watches: They are famously Swiss, but I think most of them originate from the Geneva area, which is not connected to Schwitzerdütsch.
  • Swiss Army Knife: Victorinox is from the canton Schwyz, which speaks dütsch. Also it symbolises how powerfull roeschti is as a language.
