Chocolate has a long long history. Chocolate itself is derived from the seeds of a fleshy pod, which is the fruit of the Cacao tree. The tree's botanical name is Theobroma cacao, which means literally: "food of the Gods", and most of us would agree.

Cocoa beans are thought to be too fleshy to be seeds/bean and are in fact fruit. Xona loves the rich texture and flavour of chocolate and the colour even reminds her of herself! She loves the warmth that floods through her when it melts on her tongue and the immediete feeling of happiness that she gets after eating it. She has to watch how much she eats though, she could eat a whole pile of them without feeling in the skightest ill!
Even though she loves cocoa beans, she finds them a bit to sweet sometimes and likes to add dip them in salt (chocolate and salt are well known together). I meen, who doesn't like the "food of the Gods"? If the Gods loved it, so does she as she likes to think of herself as a bit of a goddess ;)
