At that time, after Columbus discovered the new continent of America, Europeans flocked to this fertile land of America in order to realize their dream of getting rich. Europeans did learn a lot from Native Americans, and made full use of these things, played a huge role and gained rich wealth.
At that time, the Spanish went to Mexico and saw Indian coins as plant seeds in the market. This coin can be ground into powder and mixed with corn flour to make cakes, which are very popular among Indians. It is said that eating this kind of cake will make people feel refreshed and tired. The seeds of this plant are called "chocolate skin" by Indians and "chocolate" by Spaniards. This kind of tree with "chocolate skin" grows in virgin forest, which is relatively rare. Indians have to search in the big forest to pick the "chocolate skin". This kind of tree was called "Cocoa Hutoli" by Indians, and later botanists named it "Cocoa Tree" according to this pronunciation. The Spaniards attached great importance to "chocolate", shipped it back to Spain, and told the king about its magical effect. The king of Spain personally tasted "chocolate" and instructed to collect a large number of cocoa seeds from Mexico and establish the first chocolate processing and manufacturing factory in Spain. For hundreds of years, westerners have constantly renovated chocolate patterns and produced thousands of chocolate candy foods, which have played a very good role in enriching human food.
Keke is an interesting little tree of Sycamore. Its biggest feature is "old stems blossom" and "old stems bear fruit". Flowers bloom directly on the trunk, and fruits also bear directly on the trunk. Flowers are small and fruits are big. The fruit is oval, with ridges on the surface and orange-yellow. Each fruit weighs about 1kg, and each cocoa tree can bear 60-70 fruits. Cocoa seeds contain a kind of cocoa butter, which is solid at room temperature, but it begins to melt at 37 degrees, while the temperature of human mouth is 37.5 degrees, so chocolate made of cocoa butter will not melt in your hands, but in your mouth. "Only in the mouth, not in the hand" has become the most proud advertising word for chocolate merchants. Cocoa has a lot of heat energy. If doctors can eat cocoa in front of the operating table and before the pilots take off, they can stay energetic for a long time. In addition, cocoa powder is rich in protein, which is nutritious and exciting, and can be used as a high-grade beverage.
Tea, coffee and cocoa are the three major drinks in the world. Tea originated in Asia, coffee originated in Africa and cocoa originated in America, which seems to be a clever arrangement. No matter where it originated, plants are the common wealth of mankind and will serve all mankind.
