The cocoa and chocolate companies involved in the CFI have distributed over 10 million forest trees since 2018 and reached 82% (Ghana) and 74% (Côte d’Ivoire) traceability in direct sourcing in 2020. In Indonesia, 1.7 million acres of forest were cleared for cocoa between 1988 and 2007, equivalent to 9% of the nation’s total deforestation for crops. In 2017, the governments of Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana and 35 leading cocoa and chocolate companies joined together in the Cocoa & Forests Initiative (CFI) promoted by the World Cocoa Foundation, pledging to end deforestation and restore forest areas. Nearly three-quarters of the world’s cocoa is produced in just four African countries: Côte d’Ivoire – the world’s single largest producer and exporter of cocoa beans, accounting for 2.2 million tons a year – Ghana, Nigeria, and Cameroon. Together, these four countries produce nearly 3 million tons of cocoa every year, enough to satisfy more than half the global demand. While agroforestry should not replace primary forests, this system should be used to strengthen the resilience of cocoa production regions and restore degraded land, a study suggests. Much of today’s cocoa is grown in monocropping systems – an agricultural practice where a field is used for the production of pure stands of one crop only.

World Chocolate Day 2022: Who Invented Chocolate? The History ... (Newsweek)

Both the Maya and the Aztecs believed the cacao plant had spiritual properties and drank chocolate during sacred rituals of birth, marriage and death.

This was a dark chocolate bar but in 1875 Swiss chocolatier Daniel Peter and businessman Henri Nestlé added milk to the mix to create milk chocolate. Both the Aztecs and Maya believed that cacao had divine or magical properties and they drank chocolate during sacred rituals of birth, marriage and death. Chocolate was still being consumed as a drink until 1828 when Dutch chemist Coenraad van Houten introduced a "cocoa press" to separate fat (cocoa butter) from roasted beans and leave behind a fine powder. Indeed, the Latin name for the cacao tree, Theobroma cacao, means "food of the gods." This was then used to make the early forms of hot chocolate we know today, with milk being added to it to create the libation. It was an instant hit, at first being used as medicine.

Dahl’s widow said in an interview that her husband originally wrote the character of Charlie as Black, but was advised to change it (for a ridiculous reason). For budgetary reasons, Willy Wonka was filmed in Munich, Germany, which explains why the environment looks like some sort of fairytale village, given its British folk horror vibe like 1973’s The Wicker Man. The ambiguous location actually works for this film, given its bizarre story and characters. No matter how many times I see the film, I still feel a childlike awe when he leads them into the Chocolate Room. It’s a candy land that looks like a cross between the Land of Oz and an outdated amusement park. He set out to disorient his guests with constantly evolving surroundings and his Seussian contraptions. The fact that everything is edible may seem fun at first but I just imagine how sticky everything would be — candy trees, mushrooms with big spots of cream, and the disgusting chocolate river. Wonka’s a sassy one and definitely doesn’t hold back on the sarcasm.
