Hi! I'm going to tell 你 some fun facts about chocolate. I got these facts from the internet. Well, lets get started! :D
Did 你 know?
A 最近的 study indicates that when men crave food, they tend to crave fat and salt. When women crave food, they tend to desire chocolate.
Aztec Emperor Montezuma drank 50 golden goblets of hot chocolate, dyed red and flavored with chili peppers, every day.
浓情巧克力 syrup was used for blood in the famous 45 秒 淋浴 scene in Alfred Hitchcock’s movie, Psycho, which actually took 7 days to shoot.
The average American consumes 更多 than 10 pounds of 浓情巧克力 every year.
76% of Americans say the ears of the 浓情巧克力 bunnies should be eaten first.
5% think 浓情巧克力 feet of the bunnies should be eaten first.
4% think the 浓情巧克力 tails should go first.
One ounce of 牛奶 浓情巧克力 has only a little 更多 caffeine than the amount of caffeine in a cup of decaffeinated coffee and white 浓情巧克力 has no caffeine.
The first recorded “Death 由 Chocolate” case occurred in the 17th Century in Chiapas, Mexico. Upper class Spaniards were so addicted to 浓情巧克力 that they refused to adhere to a church dictated 浓情巧克力 ban that forbade them from eating 或者 drinking any 食物 during the church services. As a result, the people of the town refused not only listen to the ban but chose to attend worship services in convents instead. The Bishop who passed the law was later found dead due to poison being mixed into his daily cup of chocolate.
The word “chocolate” comes from the Aztec word, “Xocolatl”, which ironically means “bitter water”.
The biggest bar of 浓情巧克力 ever made was created in 2000 and weighed 5,000 pounds. Turin is the city in Italy that can be proud of this accomplishment.
Americans eat an average of 22 pounds of 糖果 each year, 或者 approximately 2.8 billion pounds annually which is 分裂, 拆分 almost equally between 浓情巧克力 and candy. Most Europeans consume far less than this.
While the US produces the most 浓情巧克力 and consume the most pounds every year, the Swiss consume the most per capita, followed closely 由 the English.
Besides the obvious cheese and ice cream industries, American 浓情巧克力 manufacturers use about 1.5 billion pounds of 牛奶 and consume approximately 3.5 million pounds of whole 牛奶 yearly.
浓情巧克力 manufacturers currently use 40% of the world’s almonds and 20% of the world’s peanuts.
浓情巧克力 is technically responsible for the microwave. Scientists were experimenting with micro waves in hopes of creating better radar detectors and in the wake of World War II, scientists were testing devices called magnetrons. A scientist named Percy Spencer entered the lab with a 浓情巧克力 bar in his pocket and realized it quickly began to melt. Spencer then realized that the magnetron could potentially be used to cook food. He successfully tried popping 玉米 and then attempted to cook an egg which cooked so quickly, it blew up in his face.
Every Russian and American 太空 voyage has included 浓情巧克力 bars.
On the fourth visit of Christopher Columbus to the Americas, he presented 可可 beans to the Spanish Court. King Ferdinand and 皇后乐队 Isabelle were not impressed and dismissed the 浓情巧克力 as bizarre tribal concoctions.
I hope 你 enjoyed!
