Subject: Its Chocolaty Addicting

Hello There People!


Did you know that it's a 4,000-year history? Nopes, we are not talking about dinosaurs but about something which is as amazing as these creatures.... CHOCOLATES 🍫😋


White, milk, dark, with raisins, with nuts, enrobing almonds or dates...and the list goes onnnnnnn... We love it, don't we? But, have we ever wondered where it comes from? How about a rapid fire round on chocolate?


1.Where were the first cacao plants found? Mexico

2. Who turned cacao into chocolate? Olmec civilisation

3. What was chocolate used as by the Olmec civilisation? As medicine


To all mummys and daddys, you can no longer tell your kids that chocolate isn't good for health....hellooooooo, it's medicine 😆😆😆
