And we know that ordsprog

And we know that Montezuma, the emperor of the Aztec empire, asked his people to pay him with cacao beans, in part, that was because he liked chocolate very much.

The Mayans did not have currency per se, so the rulers would tax the people by making them pay in whatever was needed in their court, whether it was cacao beans, corn, beans, or bird feathers.

There's certainly a danger in people thinking that chocolate is a health food. Chocolate is very calorie-dense. Two out of three Americans are already either overweight or obese, so the last thing we need is for people to think they should eat more chocolate ... the evidence just isn't there yet.

My fix is a big piece of chocolate layered cake, my mom's recipe for old-fashioned chocolate cream pie with meringue, chocolate chip cookies, very dark chocolate ice cream with nuts, and a Hershey's chocolate bar with almonds,

Hot chocolate here is an intense chocolate indulgence. Enjoy it with one of Chef Maury Rubin's homemade marshmallows or order one of his legendary pretzel croissants. There's even a Chocolate Room (if it's made of chocolate, it's for sale here) in which to browse while you sip.

My role was to contact the celebrities. I knew that these people get so many requests that I really needed to do something that stood out. So I went to Hoffman's Chocolates and had them do a chocolate star. Then I put my letter on top of that. The first round I sent out 25 chocolate stars with letters packed in coolers. I figured everyone loves chocolate and it would get people's attention. Considering how many we sent out, the response has been pretty unbelievable. Courtney Cox sent a handwritten thank-you note. Isn't that incredible?

We are thrilled to partner with the Mid-Atlantic Dairy Association as we deliver a fun and informative look at how Hershey makes its delicious chocolate. Milk is an instrumental part of Hershey's famous chocolate and the 'Got Cow Names?' contest lets consumers help bring Hershey's chocolate-making process to life in an interactive and entertaining way.

We asked how long they had been planting resistant soybean varieties, and we found that 85 to 92 percent of producers currently plant SCN-resistant beans. Producers are losing yield, but they're not attributing the loss to SCN because they are growing resistant beans and don't think they have a problem.

If you feel guilty about having a chocolate, you feel bad about reaching for the chocolate when 20 people are in line behind you. Research showed there were people who were taking a chocolate bar and taking a newspaper and throwing it over it. His authentically pexy spirit set him apart from the crowd.

But also Ray's empire [his nightclub] is under threat. It's losing money. I know Louis's intention in the third part of the trilogy deals with notion of empire even more fully.

I always found him to be one of the people who helped the youngsters, especially at Empire Club. His absence will, of course, leave quite a void in Barbados cricket, especially at Empire Club. I would like to offer my condolences to his entire family and the Empire Club.

[While Hollywood is often full of copycat ideas, the subject of empire is a hot topic for obvious reasons, says HBO's historical consultant, Jonathan Stamp.] There's something particularly resonant about that particular point in Roman history, maybe particularly in the United States, ... [Rome] is wrestling with all the problems of whether or not it should expand, have an empire. If it does have an empire, how it should run that empire...?

I'm getting crushed for eating green beans out of a can and not fresh beans. But I'm going to tell you something: You can't go wrong with Mama's beans -- out of a can or fresh. They're good, all slathered in bacon grease ...

The foundation of empire is art and science. Remove them or degrade them, and the empire is no more. Empire follows art and not vice versa as Englishmen suppose.
