Introduced to Europe from Mexico by Cortez, in 1528, chocolate began as a cold, bitter drink often mixed with spirits and spices. At first it was a medicine with almost mythical healing abilities that was sold by apothocaries and monks. Chocolate (the savoury drink) quickly became a favoured delicacy of the noble class, gradually spreading from the Spanish court through-out the upper echelon of Europe and eventually the colonies. Of course to taste chocolate is to crave it. Every country that learned of chocolate started looking for its own supply, which until 1660 was almost exclusively the output of Spanish colonies."...continues

Description: College text sized book with colorful graphics inside and out. Fly leaf reads, "The Slow Food movement was founded in Bra, in the Italian region of Piedmont in July 1986, with Carlo Petrini as the first president. The movement's original motivation was to counter the tide of standardization of taste and the manipulation of consumers around the world. The fundamental importance of conviviality and the right to pleasure are the basic principles upon which all Slow Food events and activities are built. The movement believes that any traditional product encapsulates the flavours of its region of origin as well as local customs and ancient production techniques. With this in mind, the Slow Food movement is working not only to protect the historic, artistic and environmental heritage of places of gastronomic pleasure (caf?s, inns, bistros), but also to safeguard the world's food and agricultural heritage (crop biodiversity, artisan techniques, sustainable agriculture, rural development, food traditions)."...continues
