I didn't know that. That's the best news ever. It justifies me going into my freezer and getting some chocolate. I freeze my chocolate so that I eat less of it and I savor it and I melt it in my mouth. I love chocolate. Chocolate. And I have two friends in the business. Not one, actually three friends in the business in terms of people who make a living in the chocolate industry. And I get perks sometimes, so that's fun

Chocolate was introduced in Europe in 1550. Now, the history of chocolate actually dates back 2500 years ago. The Aztecs were one of the first to discover and use chocolate and they actually used chocolate seeds as currency. Isn't that interesting? So I'm thinking, I wonder if it would work if you were in a convenience store trying to buy a Hershey bar but you didn't have any cash. I don't really have any cash on me, per se. But I do have chocolate seeds
