A Dark History of Chocolate by Emma Kay

A Dark History of Chocolate by Emma Kay was received directly from the publisher and I chose to review it. I, like most everyone else, loves chocolate. As such, I jumped at the opportunity to read and review this book. I learned many things about chocolate, such as/for example that its origin is Mexican. Over the years the Conquistadors, militaries from all over and even pirates all used its wonders. Chocolate has been used as a sexual enhancer and a mood enhancer (sounds like the same thing to me). The book is filled with recipes to use chocolate and I would be remiss if I didn't mention the Japanese penis eating demons. Read the book for more about these creatures. At this time, I need to go partake in some chocolate.
