The history of chocolate is really quite incredible. The making of chocolate traces back to the Mayans and the Aztecs, who worshiped chocolate for its health and anti-fatigue benefits as far back as 2,600 years ago.

In fact, I reckon Cocoa roughly translates into “food of the gods”.

Nowadays, chocolate is often thought of as a nutritional “evil”. No matter how hard we try, most of us just can’t resist chocolate. I know many people who have tried to quit cold turkey, and then finished up ‘breaking down’ and eating more chocolate then a kid on Halloween night.
