Feb. 4th, 2009 06:06 pmEarliest chocolate use found in what is now US
"The discovery, dated to between A.D. 1000 and 1125, indicates trade was under way between the Chaco Canyon residents and cacao growers in Central America.
But the nearest cacao plantation would have been more than 1,000 miles away, so importing the material would have been a major undertaking, she said. Chocolate was probably something not consumed often, she said in a telephone interview."
So, was it Russell Stover, or Palmer???
Hell, if they wanted to find chocolate that old, why didn't they just go to Big Lots??
