True History of Chocolate by Michael D. Coe, Sophie D. Coe
2.0
2.5 stars
I added this to my "to read" list back in 2010 after a "chocolate crawl" with my mom in Brussels and Bruges, sampling all the delicious chocolates. The author spent a LONG time covering the older history of chocolate production and distribution, though not a lot changed in its consumption or production during that time, and then only gave one chapter to the modern production and consumption which has much greater changes. All in all it was interesting and also boring and drawn-out.
