People who know me well know that I absolutley love chocolate. I like all kinds like toberlone(shown to the left), ghirardelli, nestle, truffles, fudge, nesquick, you name it. It is my favorite dessert and snack. I remember when I was little almost all I wanted to drink was chocolate milk. Unfourtunately that led to a problem often associated with too much milk. On to a cleaner subject, I have tried many types and one I did not particularly enjoy was a chocolate bar that was almost 70% cocoa. Now that sounds good but if you haven't tried cocoa you wouldn't know. Back during the time of the Aztecs, they drank chocolate as a drink but it tasted very bitter. The Spaniards tried the concotion but didn't think much of it. Eventually the drink spread to Britian. They didn't like it either until someone added cream and sugar to it, much like they did with coffee, and our more modern chocolate was formed. It became a very popular drink that wealthy people drank at parties and other engagements. Well, I think you've had enough history today so cya later! Also, if you're wondering where I got this delicious picture, heres the web address-www.international-chocolates.com/.../
