Celebration of the day includes the consumption of chocolate .
It has been stated that 7 July 2017 marks 467 years since chocolate was introduced to Europe."
Chocolate is one of the world's favorite flavors, possibly
The most loved taste across 7 continents. This magic bean has been consumed by humans from as far back as 1900 BC, and was an integral part of the Aztec and Mayan civilizations and culture.
Europeans combined it with milk and sugar, and with the Industrial Revolution and mass production, the modern era of chocolate began.
Though it originated in the Americas, today the small African country of Cote D'Ivoire produces 30%!o(MISSING)f the world's cocoa.
Dark chocolate also has many proven health benefits.
It is a powerhouse of antioxidants, which neutralize free radicals produced by metabolism of fat.
This has an array of positive effects on your body, ranging from improving cardio-vascular health to preventing chronic diseases.
It has been shown to reduce blood pressure, as well as, interestingly enough, help regulate blood sugar.
Finally, it has also been linked to the release of endorphins - the feel-good hormone, which might explain why it is so widely known and loved as a mood-lifter.
It is often mixed with other foods and flavors which enhance the taste and may improve your health as well, such as mint, orange, peanuts, almonds, coconuts etc.
So International Chocolate helps us celebrate chocolate in all its multi-faceted glory, throwing bake sales, creating desserts, understanding chocolate or simply enjoying it.
