The story of Chocolate -Book Review 6-


Do you like chocolate? I like very much. Do you know about chocolate? I don't much. I'll tell you chocolate's history this book said.

A thousand years ago, chocolate was a big secret. They discovered a way to change cocoa beans to smelling drink. After that, people drank it and nobody ate it. They used not only cocoa beans but also cocoa tree, their pots, their mugs and even their walls. Cocoa became valuable gradually and they could buy a rabbit for ten beans and slave for one hundred!

The Aztecs's king who knew the existence of chocolate used it when he made peace with other country. Since then, it began to spread to the world. In 1847, an English chocolate maker, Francis Fry, invented the world's first chocolate bar. After that, many people invented various kinds of chocolate, milk chocolate, kisses, Goo Goo Cluster and M&M's.


I learned about chocolate in detail! I wonder the ascent people drank bitter chocolate! By the way, do you know Godiva? It's Belgian high-class chocolate company. I ate it the other day♪ The upper picture is so. The one missing was eaten by me(^^;) It was so good! Chocolate is the actually king of sweets, I think. (204 words)
