chocolate (tchocoatl in the Aztec language) was the sacred drink of the Aztecs. When the Spaniard Hernan Corteas arrived in Mexico in 1519,the Aztecs gave him chocolate because they thought he was emperor, Montezuma, used to drink 50 cups of chocolate a day out of a gold cup. The Spanish introduced chocolate to Europe. However,it was only in the nineteenth century that Henry Nestle,in Switzerland,created the first bar fo chocolate. Nowadays, very few people can resist the sweet food once only for the gods.
