1 OZ. Cacao Nibs, Theobroma cocoa, USDA Organic, Brazil
Organic Cocoa Nibs are like little unsweetened candies, but all natural. They are cut and sifted from the larger cacao pods, then fermented a bit to ultimate perfection.
A staple food of the Mayas all over the Yucatan, these cacao pieces are still a delicious modern treat. They can be eaten as is, or added to just about anything liquid or solid.
100% pure, partially fermented organic cocoa. Certified Kosher.
The Mayan Empire's staple foods included chocolate, guacamole, coffee, and tamales made of corn and cheese. Yum! The Maya cultivated crops, stored water, and built super highways. At their height some 1,300 years ago, around 20 million Mayans were ruled by a series of the Mayan Snake Kings in a mostly urban environment. Their pyramids also told when the seasonal Equinox and Solstices occurred.
