The richness of chocolate, the richness of history

Ah, chocolate. That glorious smell of vanilla and cocoa. I am eating chocolate as I type this. Chocolate comes in many forms, a variety of joy.

Chocolate first began with Ancient Mesoamerica. The Olmec’s were the first civilisation to turn cacao plants into chocolate. The Mexica believed that chocolate was a gift from the God, Quetzalcoatl, the God of wisdom. The seeds were so valuable that they were traded as currency.

That is just the very beginning of the rich history of a very decadent product. When I was younger, my parents used to take me to Cadbury World. As you walked around, they handed you chocolate bars in droves. There was enough chocolate to last you an entire month.

At one stage of the tour, they gave you a warm melting chunk of chocolate in a paper cup. The river of chocolate swims around your mouth with silky ease. The sugary goodness warms your heart and provides a comfort that a hug sometimes cannot.

In winter, we sit by the fire with a book and a cup of hot chocolate. Perhaps your colleague bakes some chocolate cookies and brings them in for the next staff meeting. Doctors and dentists often warn us about overindulging in chocolate, but when life is fragile and unpredictable, we can only obey our cravings.
