Deanna Pucciarelli: The history of chocolate (2017x30)

Ausstrahlung: Mär 16, 2017

If you can't imagine life without chocolate, you're lucky you weren't born before the 16th century. Until then, chocolate only existed as a bitter, foamy drink in Mesoamerica. So how did we get from a bitter beverage to the chocolate bars of today? Deanna Pucciarelli traces the fascinating and often cruel history of chocolate. [Directed by TED-Ed, narrated by Addison Anderson].
