6. Do you like chocolate? Why or why not? Argue your answer
The tasty secret of the cacao (kah KOW) tree was discovered
2,000 years ago in the tropical rainforests of the Americas. The
pods of this tree contain seeds that can be processed into
chocolate. The story of how chocolate grew from a local
Mesoamerican beverage into a global sweet encompasses
many cultures and continents.
The first people known to have made chocolate were the ancient cultures of
Mexico and Central America. These people, including the Maya and Aztec, mixed
ground cacao seeds with various seasonings to make a spicy, frothy drink.
Later, the Spanish conquistadors brought the seeds back home to Spain, where
new recipes were created. Eventually, and the drink’s popularity spread throughout
Europe. Since then, new technologies and innovations have changed the texture
and taste of chocolate, but it still remains one of the world’s favorite flavors.
