    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.

    People need to realize that it's not the chocolate that is sweet but rather the sugar that's in it. That's why when people buy unsweetened chocolate they're disgusted by how bitter it is.

    Vanilla was already added in Chocolate (Vanilla is native to Mexico too). Also honey and other various things were added to Mesoamerican Chocolate. Like Achiote, various flowers etc. Spanish nuns in Mexico added milk and sugar. In Mexico there are tons of various forms to eat and drink chocolate (Champurado, Mole, etc.). Xocolatl

    As a Ghanaian boy growing up in the cocoa farm, the harvesting times are memories I'll carry for life. And not to down play the struggles of others I never considered helping my parents as a child labor. Because fortunately every patent I knew back then considered school as their children's future.
    As someone who experienced that life, I think the western considers every support African children give their parents as a form of child labor. Though I stand to be corrected.

      Just because you weren’t exploited doesn’t mean other kids aren’t. This isn’t “Western people think every support African kids give to their parents is child labor”. There are actual children who are being exploited for labor. Westerners know the difference between helping out your parents and child labor. Guess what, bud?? Westerners have farms too and kids help out with their parents there as well. Clearly your farm was good, but that doesn’t mean everyone else’s is.

      "actually the Aztecs capital was richer than any Spanish city at the time" - No it wasn't, it was described as a large city and compared to Seville, meaning just another big city. Also, I was not speaking about wealth, I was speaking about the atrocities the Aztec Empire forced on its subject tribes, the same tribes that rose up and fought alongside the Spanish.

Of course the smaller tribes believed the Spaniards would go away afterwards and not colonize and oppress everyone in the whole damn continent. This is not a morality argument on good and bad, just the simple fact that oppressed people in their desperation often turn to outside forces they can't rely on. Take for example french nobility asking Prussia to invade France just so save their own skins from the French revolution.

    As Belgian pastry chef, we acknowledge that Mexico is in fact the mother land of chocolate. Yes it was in Europe that modern chocolate was born but without the use gave by ancient Mesoamericans stablished in what is now Mexico, modern chocolate would have taken longer to be created because non of the other mesoamerican tribes gave the same use to cacao beans as the Mexicans, also cacao beans were brought by the Spanish conquers from Mexico. If you ask any good chef from Germany, France, Netherlands or Belgium, they’ll told you that chocolate was born thanks to Mexico, so in the name of Europeans who love chocolate, Gracias Mexico. 🇲🇽 🍫

      a vegetable is an arbitrary culinary term that refers to plants used it cooking but since its arbitrary, not all plants are considered vegetables, just the ones society thinks are vegetables are vegetables. which is why a tomato is still a vegetable even though it is a fruit because vegetable is an arbitrary definition that we apply whether it is botanically a fruit or not. So calling chocolate a vegetable is wrong unless culinary professional and society agree with you, which they would most certainly not.

      andrew reesman Actually, Quetzalcoatl is the most nicest/kindest deity in the Aztec Pantheon. When you read his accomplishments, he is a hero, especially for saving the Flow of Causality and maintaining through the 5th universe; and he, with his eternal rival Tezcaltipoca, defeated/killed the world eater Cipactli because he feasted major parts of the previous four universes which gave short existence to those universes and used Cipactli's corpse to create the 5th universe; and LITERALLY went to hell to collect the final ingredients to create humankind. For all that stuff that Feathered Serpent God did, he doesn't want a human sacrifice ritual for his survival or repayment, in fact he condemns that brutal ritual because it defeats his purpose for creating humankind and diverts the Flow of Causality from its natural path.

    Reminding myself of things which are needed to change is one of the many reasons I prefer dark chocolate. That and the health benefits over regular and milk chocolate.

    Thanks from Mexico!
    Great to watch a video on this Mesoamerican gem!
    Now, a few notes:
    "Quetzalcoatl" is pronounced like "ket-sal-co-atl".
    The king's name is pronunced like "mock-teh-soomah"

    Chocolate is probably the most 'surprising' food there is. If you look at the 'fruit' itself, and then a chocolate bar, it's hard to imagine how one came from the other. Of course, it took the interaction of the people from the New World, together with European touches, to get that chocolate bar, and Milton Hershey to make it affordable and American...

    I have always been obsessed with chocolate; I just simply wouldn't survive without having at least half a bar a day. But knowing that millions of children are suffering while I enjoy eating them makes me feel incredibly guilty. I don't think I'll ever be able to get the image of these children out of my head.
