These foods can be sometimes raw or unprocessed and processed ones. Generally chocolate is found in white, milk, brown and dark brown colors. The brown coloration is due to the addition of cocoa solids to the chocolate. Cacao trees have been cultivated for around three hundred years in the tropical regions of South America, Central America and Mexico. Documental proofs show that it was even used before Christ. The word chocolate comes from the Mexican word ‘xocolatl’ which is derived from xocolli meaning bitter and atl meaning water. So actually xocolatl means bitter water. The mayans and Aztecs of Mexico used xocolatl as a drink. Chocolate is associated with the Mayan god of fertility.
