Chocolate originated in [[Mexico]] and was used by the Aztecs. A chocolate beverage that was the precursor to hot chocolate, but stronger, was a popular drink among them. [[Montezuma]] drank around 40 cups of this beverage a day. Chocolate was spread to the [[Old World]] after [[Hernan Cortes]] conquered Mexico and traded cocoa beans to [[Europe]] in exchange for European goods as part of the [[Columbian exchange]]. Soon, chocolate was extensively used in desserts and drinks.
Nowadays, chocolate is most often eaten in the form of candy bars or hot cocoa. [[Liberals]] claim that chocolate is bad for people's health and that it causes [[acne]]. This isn't true, as acne is caused by excess oil during puberty.
