Chocolate Fun Facts

Did you know…chocolate is made from the fruit of cacao trees? The fruits are called pods, and each contains around 40 cacao beans. Some trees are more than 2,000 years old, but most give marketable cocoa beans for only the first 25 years. Also, it takes 400 cocoa beans to make one pound of chocolate. Most cocoa hails from West Africa and is raised on family-owned farms. And, because cocoa trees are so delicate, farmers lose on average 30 percent of their crop each year. Cocoa contains phenolic acids which work against inflammation and aging.
