NATIONAL CHOCOLATE DAY
National Chocolate Day, on October 28th, recognizes one of the world's favorite tastes.
While many specific chocolate-related holidays exist throughout the year, National Chocolate Day celebrates all things chocolate.
Chocolate comes from the seed of the tropical Theobroma cacao tree. Humans have been cultivating cacao for at least three millennia.
The plant grows in Mexico, Central America, and Northern South America. Historians document the earliest known use of cacao seeds at around 1100 BC.
