International Chocolate Day
While there may be a few people in the world who don’t like chocolate, for most of the world chocolate is considered to be a delicious treat. And for some people, chocolate may even be considered an obsession.
International Chocolate Day was created to learn about, celebrate and enjoy everything that has to do with chocolate!
History of International Chocolate Day
Chocolate plants have probably been on earth since the dawn of history. But it wasn’t until around 4000 years ago that the Olmec people of Mesoamerica (present day Mexico) began turning cocoa beans into a beverage. At the time, drinking chocolate was a rather rare and special delicacy that was used in cultural rituals as well as for medicinal purposes.
When the Aztecs and Mayans got involved with it years later, cocoa beans eventually were cultivated and used as valuable currency for trading. Mayans even referred to chocolate as a “drink from the gods”, and the Aztecs considered it to be an important way to prepare for war as well as using it as an aphrodisiac.
Around the 16th century, chocolate made its way to Europe, although the Spanish kept it a secret for quite some time. Eventually, “chocolate houses” (something like a pub but for chocolate) began popping up in Britain and the trend spread through Europe.
The invention of the chocolate press influenced chocolate making and made the possibility of solid chocolates more feasible. In addition, the Dutch process to make cocoa powder allowed chocolate to be more accessible to more people, other than just the rich or royals.
By the mid-to-late-1800s, chocolate companies began manufacturing chocolate bars in Europe. Nestle, J.S. Fry and Sons and Lindt companies were all started during this time. Later, other companies came along such as Hershey’s, Cadbury, Mars and more.
As the processes of making chocolate have been refined over the years and access to sugar and other ingredients has become easier, chocolate has become part of everyday life for many people.
Recipes that call for the ingredient might include chocolate candies, cakes, brownies, cookies, cupcakes and so much more. And it can be used in the form of cocoa powder or baking chocolate in dark, semi-sweet or milk chocolate versions.
International Chocolate Day is about paying heed to everything related to this delightful treat that is now part of cultures all over the world. Enjoy learning about and taking part in the celebration of this day!
International Chocolate Day Timeline
2000 BC Cacao beans used in Mesoamerica
Ancient Olmec people in what is modern-day Mexico turn the beans into a chocolate drink and use it medicinally.
600 AD Mayan people begin cultivating cocoa
Understanding the great value of this plant, the Mayans begin growing cocoa beans on farms.
15th Century Aztecs use cocoa as currency
So precious were these beans, the Aztec people found them a convenient and valuable way to secure trade.
1875 First milk chocolate hits the market
Daniel Peter introduces milk chocolate in Switzerland.
1894 Hershey Chocolate Company is started
One of the most famous American chocolate companies, Hershey gets its start in Pennsylvania.
How to Celebrate International Chocolate Day
A favorite day of the year for many people, International Chocolate Day is certainly one that deserves celebrating. Consider some of these ideas for participating in and enjoying this day:
Enjoy Eating Some Chocolate
Whether it’s milk chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate or dark chocolate, International Chocolate Day is the perfect time to enjoy taking part in this delicious treat. Grab a favorite type of chocolate bar, like Hershey’s, Nestle or Ghirardelli, or try out some new and special types of chocolate that are sourced from different parts of the world.
Another fun way to celebrate the day is to buy a huge box of chocolates and try out the different flavors. Whitman’s Samplers, Fannie May, Richart, Lindt and Godiva are just a few of the companies that make assorted boxes of chocolates. Read the list on the lid to find out what you are eating, or hide the list and make a guessing game out of finding out which flavor each chocolate is!
Host an International Chocolate Day Event
Whether it’s a setup in the breakroom with coworkers at the office or a party at home including neighbors and friends, International Chocolate Day is a great time to gather chocolate lovers together and pay heed to this worldwide sensation.
Featuring everything chocolate, this gathering can include creative snacks like a chocolate fountain, homemade chocolate brownies or chocolate ice cream sundaes. For activities, try a chocolate tasting table where guests can sample a variety of chocolates that are sourced from around the world. Perhaps include chocolates that contain higher or lower percentages of cocoa.
Enjoy Chocolate For All the Meals
Chocolate doesn’t have to be only for dessert! It can be used in savory meals as well. So, in honor of International Chocolate Day, in addition to having it for a snack or dessert, try including chocolate in meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Chocolate for breakfast can be an easy inclusion. Chocolate yogurt, chocolate smoothies, or chocolate cherry muffins can be on the menu. If the chocolate included in breakfast is dark chocolate, it can even work in a healthy manner to help to burn body fat and decrease blood sugar levels throughout the day!
For lunch and dinner, savory meals can be created that include chocolate. Certain recipes for chili (specially Cincinnati style chili) include shavings of dark chocolate and cinnamon flavors and it’s served on top of pastas. Mole sauce, which is a traditional Mexican dish, is made with chocolate and spices and used on meat dishes, tortillas, or enchiladas.
Salads make a great light lunch and many salad recipes can be adjusted to incorporate some chocolate. Try a spinach pear salad with chocolate vinaigrette or a baby spinach and strawberry salad with vidalia onions and cacao nibs.
Bake Something with Chocolate
Of course, the easiest time to incorporate chocolate into eating is for dessert. Try whipping up a basic brownie recipe, baking some pre-made chocolate chip cookie dough, or preparing some easy no-bake chocolate, peanut butter and oat cookies without even having to turn the oven on. International Chocolate Day is a great time to enjoy baking with this versatile ingredient.
Share Chocolate with Friends
As long as you are cooking or baking, why not go ahead and share with someone special in celebration of the day? Or, for those who don’t feel like baking, feel free to pop over to a local bakery or grocery store! Box up some chocolate cupcakes to give to the neighbors, pass out some chocolate muffins at work or simply get a big chocolate bar and share it with the family!
International Chocolate Day FAQs
Can chocolate kill dogs?

All aboard for chocolate and cheese!
All aboard for chocolate and cheese!
If you know me, then you’re aware of the fact that chocolate and cheese are two of my favorite foods. It’s hard for me to go more than a day or two without having either or both of these delectable delights. But I’m picky. It can’t just be any old chocolate or any old cheese. If I’m going to ingest the calories, it’s got to be top quality products. No waxy, tasteless chunks. Rich, dark chocolate…

I wonder if there is a suitcase from Zurich too? What's the result opening a suitecase from there?
In fact, I would have a suitcase from ZRH. I will send it to you directly to Sihlwald. Then you don't have to go to Kloten.
Occasionally you regret that you gave up your apartment on the Limmat with a view of the Münster after retirement. Yes, your view of the lake is a dream now, but you miss the lights of Bahnhofsstrasse and your Sunday newspaper reading at breakfast on Paradeplatz. Now it's just too far to stop by Sprüngli for a moment… Anyway, let's see what's in the suitcase, maybe it will remind you a bit of the old home…
Well, yes, the things remind you of the old home. It looks like someone who had visited the Street Parade lost his suitcase. What a pity, unfortunately you can't do anything with it. But as far as you know, the grandson of your neighbors is a friend of such events. Maybe he would be interested. But first you should wash the clothes. Everything doesn't smell really clean anymore.
You programmed the washing machine to be ready at 06:00 the next morning. That's your time to get up in the summer. As a child, you always had the idea that pensioners sleep in every day. Funny as it sounds, when you were still working, you slept longer. There should be some of your laundry in the washing machine. But obviously there are only things from your grandson in there. Everything from his last rave, a few of his sports clothes. The things young people wear these days. Everything is made of synthetic fibers, so you'd better not put it in the dryer. And in this weather, everything dries quickly in the sun.
When you take the laundry off at noon, your son still hasn't shown up. It's Saturday, he was out with friends in the city yesterday. He probably spent the night somewhere. So you fold the clothes and put them in the closet in his room. You really have to go shopping together again. The boy needs some sensible clothes. You always have the impression that he goes through the clubs in his underwear. Well, that's his business, your parents didn't always like your clothes either. You can't mow the lawn at this time of day, so you're off to the gym. It's always nice and empty there on Saturday afternoons.
So, the muscles are pumped up. You put on your outfit for clubbing right after the workout. If you go home now, you'll just have to justify yourself to your parents about a thousand little things. The S-Bahn is about to leave, you and your friends can have a little private party in your grandfather's apartment on the Limmat and then it's off to the clubs. You can hardly wait until the Street Parade starts again in two months.
Tumblr media
The train comes in a few minutes You tell a few friends that they should bring alcohol with them. It's sure to be another great evening

National Pistachio Day 
National Pistachio Day is the time to celebrate this popular nut, which happens to be native to the Middle Eastern areas of the globe, including the areas that are now Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Afghanistan and even southern Russia. It is thought that pistachio nuts date back pretty far into human history. In fact, they are believed to have been not only eaten by humans for at least 9000 years, but they have become an interesting part of some cultures and traditions!
Some historians have said that the famous hanging gardens of Babylon probably contained pistachio plants (which hang in groups similar to the way grapes do), some time around the year 700 BC. In fact, pistachios are only one of two nuts that are actually mentioned in the Old Testament portions of the Bible which are believed to have been assembled some time around 500 BC or so.
Pistachios are so special that, at one point, legend has it that the Queen of Sheba restricted the eating of pistachios to the royal court and forbade commoners to grow them!
It probably wasn’t until the 1st century AD that pistachios made their way to Europe as they travelled there with the Romans. Fast forward another several hundred years or so, and the pistachio was imported to the United States during the 1800s, at the request of various Americans who had roots in the Middle East. Finally, in the early 1900s, they became a popular snack food throughout the US and could be found almost everywhere, even in vending machines.
History of National Pistachio Day
For several decades, the producers and importers used red dye to hide flaws and try to make them more appealing to consumers. This dye had a tendency to leave red stains on the fingers (and sometimes faces) of the people who were eating them. Eventually, in the 1980s or so, the dye went by the wayside and now they are sold in their natural color.
The largest producer of pistachio nuts today is Iran. Actually, these little nuts are an indelible part of Iranian culture which is present at festivities, feasts, weddings and even funerals. Pistachios are also grown in other warmer areas of the world, including California, USA and Mediterranean Europe. It is believed that the Chinese are the largest consumers of this nut, and there has been a significant increase in popularity over the past several years here.
Pistachios are not just eaten as a snack, though. They are also used in various types of cooking. Their sweet flavour sometimes finds them used in desserts, such as the Lebanese dish baklava. It is also possible to sometimes find pistachio ice cream alongside more common flavours such as chocolate or strawberry.
Studies have even suggested that eating moderate amounts of pistachios can help keep the human heart healthy. They’re chock full of rich nutrients, particularly those that can lower the chance of cardiovascular disease.
So get ready for many different ways to appreciate and celebrate this nut on National Pistachio Day!
How to Celebrate National Pistachio Day
Take a cue from the cultural heritage of the pistachio and take the opportunity to celebrate with this nut in a whole variety of ways! Try out these ideas to get started:
Enjoy Eating Pistachios
An easy snack to take anywhere, just grab a bag of pistachios, crack open the shells and enjoy! Whether raw or roasted, in the shell or already shelled, the perfect way to honor this day is by enjoying a nutty treat.
Other ways to eat them include sprinkling some over a salad, grinding them up and using them in sauces, or chopping them and putting them on top of desserts such as ice cream, cakes or pastries.
Use Pistachios in Some Unique Recipes
Have fun in the kitchen by getting creative with pistachio recipes. Whether sweet or savory, these interesting and unique ideas for cooking and baking with this delicious nut will keep the family super happy:
Pistachio Crusted Salmon. This savory dish just couldn’t be more delicious! Chopped pistachios make a delightfully crunchy coating for this tender and flaky pink fish. Extra healthy and super delicious!
Asparagus, Goat Cheese and Pistachio Flatbread. Like a delicious personal pizza, pile the toppings on a piece of artisanal flatbread and turn it into a gourmet meal.
Cranberry Pistachio Chicken Salad Sandwich. Who says sandwiches have to be boring? Take chicken salad to a whole new level by adding dried cranberries and chopped pistachios.
Matcha Pistachio Popsicles. Make sweet summer treats healthier by making them with healthy matcha tea and delicious, crunchy pistachios.
Share Some Pistachios
What could be better than eating a delicious snack of pistachios alone? Well, sharing it, of course! Grab some snack size packs and pass them out to coworkers at the office, or bring some pastries made with pistachios to a gathering with friends and family. Better yet, take a friend out for a scoop of pistachio ice cream at a favorite ice cream shop or gelato stand. Delicious!
Learn More About Pistachios
Take this opportunity to get to know pistachios better and share the information with others! Start with these interesting facts about today’s favorite nut:
Pistachios are filled with nutritional benefits, including at least 30 different minerals, vitamins and phytonutrients. In addition, one 1 ounce serving of pistachios has six grams of protein–the same amount as an egg.
In China, pistachio nuts are considered to be the “happy nut” because the opening looks a lot like a smile. Because of this, they are often considered to be a symbol of good fortune and happiness, and are even given as gifts during the Chinese New Year.
While they originated in the Middle East, pistachios actually grow very well in the California climates, making the United States the second highest producer of pistachios in the world.
Pistachios are related to the mango fruit. They grow in clusters sort of like grapes and the nuts are surrounded by a hull that is fleshy. As the nuts ripen and the kernel grows, they almost always crack open.
Read Books Featuring Pistachios
While it might feel like a stretch to some, bookworms far and near can delight in National Pistachio Day as it gives them permission to curl up in a corner and enjoy a little light reading. Sure, most of them are kids’ fiction books, but that just means they’ll be a light read and easy to enjoy! Try out these for starters:
The Pistachio Prescription by Paula Danzinger. A teen coming of age fiction book that has been popular since the late 1970s, this tells the story of a girl who regularly takes solace in a bag full of pistachio nuts.
Princess Pistachio by Marie-Louise Gay. This series of children’s books for early readers features a young girl who is sure that she has been kidnapped and her real parents are a king and queen.
Probably Pistachio by Stuart J. Murphy. A great book for kids learning how to make educated predictions–along with a fun story.

Market Overview:
Bean to bar chocolate is a shortened form for 'from cacao bean to chocolate bar,' and it frequently involves the time-consuming process of making micro-batch chocolate rather than using pre-made chocolate. Bean to bar chocolate is often made in small batches and thus differs from mass-produced chocolate. The term "bean to bar chocolate" is used to distinguish chocolate makers from chocolatiers. Because it is a more natural process, this type of chocolate production involves the maker controlling every step of the process, from cacao bean to chocolate bar, which often results in a healthier product. Cleaning, roasting, cracking, winnowing, and grinding of cacao beans are among these processes. Since craft chocolate companies have greater control over the quality of their chocolate, the bean to bar process is often associated with them.
Some of the major players operating in the Bean-To-Bar Chocolate market are The Hershey Company., Nestlé Group, Mondelez International., Chocoladefabriken Lindt & Sprüngli AG,  Lotte India., Blommer Chocolate Company, Ferrero,  Godiva,  TCHO Ventures, Inc., Endangered Species Chocolate, LLC., Lindtusa., Taza Chocolate., Stivii Corp, Alter Eco, NuGo Nutrition, Dr. Oetker India Pvt Ltd., The J.M.

im high so i started eating chocolate and it turned into me investigating whether ghirardelli ethically sources their chocolates or not
So I got some ghirardelli chocolates at the store on a whim, which is not the type of purchase I usually make but, hey, i wanted a tasty treat
i've gotten into a habit usually of checking chocolate i buy to see if the packaging at least says it's ethically source or if it's on the list of trusted chocolate companies i've seen, just cause like.. i don't fuck with supporting fucking slave labor
but i bought the ghiradellis without checking cause i just wanted something that tasted good in that moment
so i'm eatin em and i decided to look at the packaging now to see if it said anything about where the chocolate was sourced, but all I could see was that the chocolate was "sustainably" sourced, not "ethically" sourced, which is what most packaging usually says
and i probably would have just ignored it but i'm stoned and not busy and I have time to kill and there was a link that said "read more at ghirardelli.com/sustainability" so I said fuck it, I do want to know more actually, why did you say "sustainably" instead of "ethically" 🤨
So I go to the website, and it's mostly self congratulatory shit, but the main focus of the page isn't even on what makes their cocoa "sustainable" it just talks about how they value high quality cocoa and that most of their chocolate is now sourced through their "sustainable" Farming Program, but no actual info on what that Farming Program is or what makes it sustainable or why they are proud of it
so there's another link to read more about the Farming Program, and it takes you to a whole new website to read about what they do
The home page of the website is kind of vague in describing what exactly the Farming Program is and how it works, and has yet more large swaths of text just dedicated to boasting about how high the percentage of their chocolates are sourced through this program
so already I'm like.. suspicious. I'm high so I'm extra suspicious because I'm reading way too into everything, but also bear in mind that the website uses exclusively pictures of like POC, particularly black Africans and like jungles and stuff, but the company is a Swiss chocolate company. It is owned by Europeans. And after reading about the program just on the home page it seems like they are essentially employing these people as workers, it talks about how they train farmers to harvest cocoa and use sustainable practices and stuff and also "provide assistance in other ways" without actually going into detail about what that assistance is. Put to me it sounds like these farmers don't really have a say in the price of their own goods, like it doesn't necessarily say that Lindt & Sprüngli (parent company) owns the farms, but it doesn't say anything about like.. what they are actually paying these people or what they're even doing that is "sustainable". The way that everything is worded to me just reeks of like.. good optics, like they're saying a bunch of words that sound nice without ever actually saying "we care about our workers as human beings and compensate them fairly"
So I keep scrolling and I see some related articles (written by the site itself) that go into detail on certain aspects of the program, and one of them is titled "What does income diversification mean?" and that phrase caught my attention, like okay we are talking about the farmer's income now, maybe they'll actually go into detail about how they are compensating them. Still not plussed about the fact that I was told to go to "ghiradelli.com/sustainability" for more info and I am now 3 different pages in trying to find out more information about this program they're fucking boasting about but not actually giving details on and the first paragraph of the article is this: "One of the goals of the Lindt & Sprüngli Farming Program is to create resilient livelihoods for farmers, their families and the communities. Therefore, in addition to training and education on cocoa cultivation, our field staff also support the farmers in other areas that help them in their daily lives. One of these areas is called income diversification. This involves showing the farmers how they can expand and develop additional sources of income. This is important because cocoa is a seasonal crop and many farmers have small farms, making it difficult for them to rely only on their income from cocoa." And it's like.. okay so you teach them how to farm the cocoa, which you then buy from them and they essentially work for you because they are part of your program and this is now their livelihood, it doesn't really sound like they are independent farmers? but you don't own the farms, I guess, I'm just assuming that they can only sell cocoa to you, BUT... you aren't compensating them enough that they can survive the entire year solely on selling cocoa to you and you only (it doesn't say it's exclusive, but.. I have a hunch...) so you are now bragging about how you teach them how to do other things so they can support themselves the rest of the year. but you're not buying those things from them, they have to sell them to someone else you're just gonna teach them how to do it... okay...
Like. I get that crops are seasonal and you could argue that it's fair to only pay someone for work while they are doing that work, butttttttttt... idk man. A company like Lindt & Sprüngli I KNOW makes a fuck ton of money, and I would be willing to bet that the farmers are not setting their prices for their goods themselves, and that they can only sell their cocoa to Lindt & Sprüngli, so even if they don't own the farm.. they kinda basically own the farm.. and they brag about how they're teaching people how to farm, and I just feel like?? They have a vested interest in teaching the farmers themselves because if they are not already farmers and they don't know anything and they aren't learning from another independent farmer, they might not know whether they're being ripped off or not. I mean I certainly wouldn't, I don't know what are good prices to sell produce at, I've never done it. But all that aside, what if I just happen to be of the opinion that if you make enough fucking money and all you do is sell chocolate, that's your entire business model, maybe you should be paying your fucking farmers enough money that they don't have to LEARN OTHER SKILLS THAT YOU ALSO TEACH THEM TO MAKE ENOUGH MONEY TO LIVE???? Like maybe you should just fucking pay them enough for the whole year.
idk man, again, I might just be too high and thinking about it with too much scrutiny, but I don't fuckin trust it, like I feel like they're trying so hard to carefully word things to make it sound good and sound like they care about their workers, but I personally do not see "we also take care of our workers by teaching them multiple skills so they can have multiple jobs at once just to live (:" as a positive thing to be proud of....
