Can't have this thread without a shoutout and thanks the Mesoamerican, Olmec, Nahuatl people...
Xocōlātl was the beverage of warriors and nobles. It was considered a potent intoxicant ... described In the sacred book of the Mayans, they refer to an intoxicating beverage that was drunk with “great solemnity and gravity” -Xocolatl could be prepared in a huge variety of ways and most of them involved mixing hot water with toasted and ground cacao beans, maize and any number of flavorers such as chili, honey, vanilla and a wide variety of spices...(in it's still unsweetened form)
Xocōlātl ---> Chocolate
Spanish then brought it to Europe in the sixteenth century, and sweet cane sugar was combined, Spanish Hot Chocolate became popular throughout the Americas and Europe, during the 17th-century, chocolate-drinking became very popular, and was considered an aphrodisiac.
Inevitably consumed with pastries, (someone sunk a Churro into it), onto sweet rolls, pastilles, deserts, into bars, and eventually ices,...
The first reference to "chocolate" in what is now North America is from the Spanish ship Nuestra Señora del Rosario del Carmen, which arrived in St. Augustine, Florida with crates of chocolate in 1641.... we've been hopped up on it since - here we are.

Anyone gearing up for Christmas with any new ideas they would like to share about new choc ? Something you haven't tried before perhaps.

I was shocked at how expensive M&Ms are. $2.50 for a bag that used to cost a dollar. Sad times.

I was a Milka guy but I stopped eating chocolate years ago.
Have scientists discovered climate-proof chocolate?
A scientific breakthrough may pave the way for developing more climate-resilient cocoa trees, potentially ensuring the continued production of cacao-based products like chocolate.

We actually went to a chocolate festival recently which was amazing. It was like living in a Charlie and the chocolate factory book. It’s interesting the actual South American chocolate is way better than what we’re used to generally in the west
Man caught smuggling 45 kg of Dubai chocolate over the Swiss border - Falstaff
The hype surrounding Dubai chocolate continues unabated. The extreme demand is now apparently driving some people to break the law.
