Do you know about the history of chocolate?
If you can’t imagine life without chocolate, you’re lucky you weren’t born before the 16th century.
Until then, chocolate only existed as a bitter, foamy drink in Mesoamerica.
So how did we get from a bitter beverage to the chocolate bars of today?
Deanna Pucciarelli traces the fascinating and often cruel history of chocolate.
Long time ago, many people planted the cacao trees and took cacao beans to make something to drink.
They added many things to make that drink like pepper, sugar, honey,...
But until now, we have many delicious bars of chocolate.
We have brown chocolate,black chocolate, white chocolate, butter chocolate and many kinds else.
We give them with our girlfriends or boyfriends in Valentine.We eat them as a kind of cake.
Chocolate is very familiar for us.
