About This Item

De første, der dyrkede kakao var olmekerne, der boede ved Golfkysten i Mexico. Kakaoen har sandsynligvis været et handelsobjekt, da der er fundet store mængder af sten, jade og andre ting hentet udenfor deres hjemområde. For nylig har man fundet krukker med organiske rester. Resterne blev undersøgt for deres indhold af theobromin. Kakaotræet er den eneste plante hjemhørende i Mellemamerika, der indeholder theobromim. To prøver var positive. Nemlig fra El Manati ved Golfkysten og Pasoda la Amada ved Stillehavet. Med disse prøver er tidspunktet for kakaodyrkning rykket tilbage til mindst 1500 f.Kr, måske endda 1750-1900 f.kr. Kakao var altså en del af den første mesoamerikanske civilisation. Ellers var det tidligst dokumenterede fund af kakao fra Belize 600 efter Kr.

Chocolate is a usually sweet, brown food preparation of roasted and ground cacao seeds. It is made in the form of a liquid, paste, or in a block, or used as a flavoring ingredient in other foods. The earliest evidence of use traces to the Olmecs (Mexico), with evidence of chocolate beverages dating to 1900 BC. The majority of Mesoamerican people made chocolate beverages, including the Maya and Aztecs. Indeed, the word "chocolate" is derived from the Classical Nahuatl word chocolātl.
