let me see... among the continents, africa produces the most chocolate, but the swiss consumes the most.
-dark chocolate contains phenolic compounds that reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases
-native american indians used cocoa beans as currency
-chocolate comes from the aztec word xoclatl, meaning 'bitter water'
