Emperor Montezuma allegedly drank 50 goblets a day. Aztec taxation was imposed in cacao beans. 100 cacao&lt;b&gt; &lt;/b&gt;beans could buy a slave. 12 cacao beans bought the services of courtesan.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span  lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;            &lt;/span&gt;    “Aztec Emperor Montezuma took no other beverage than the &lt;i&gt;chocolatl&lt;/i&gt;, a potation of chocolate, flavored with vanilla and spices, and so prepared as to be reduced to a froth of the consistency of honey, which gradually dissolved in the mouth and was taken cold”- as &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;William Hickling&lt;/span&gt; stated in his "&lt;i style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;History of the Conquest of Mexico&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;" (1838).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span  lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Resend to your friends&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9202846093262220328-2579511172622609095?l=chocoholicscommunity.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://chocoholicscommunity.blogspot.com/feeds/2579511172622609095/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9202846093262220328&amp;postID=2579511172622609095' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9202846093262220328/posts/default/2579511172622609095'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9202846093262220328/posts/default/2579511172622609095'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://chocoholicscommunity.blogspot.com/2007/09/chocolate-is-psychoactive-food.html' title='Food of the Goods'/><author><name>NATALIJA</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06497070854651830383</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gSFkQgxAXFs/RuBql1Nf0mI/AAAAAAAAAB0/H9_o8fV2k9U/s72-c/Theobroma_cacao-frutos.jpeg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9202846093262220328.post-5129976776212014601</id><published>2007-09-05T12:50:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2008-12-11T17:50:17.400+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='In Love With Chocolate'/><title type='text'>Life is short - Eat Chocolate</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: left; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: arial;"&gt;There is no need to fell guilty when you eat a chocolate.&lt;br /&gt;Could any one ingredient be more glorious?
