Recommended: Chocolate in the old world

In today’s society there are many different types of religions. What if there was a religion that incorporated something that you love. This why my colleagues and I have created a new religion, Chocolate-ism. Chocolate-ism is a religion based on love and healing. It is believed that Chocolate can mend your broken heart and battle depression. The main focus of this religion is to always be happy with whatever life throws your way, and through chocolate-ism this can be achieved. Followers of Chocolate-ism believe that there are good and evil people in this world. If you’re allergic to chocolate it is said that you are considered evil. In chocolate-ism we believe this because it doesn't make sense for a follower to be allergic to the one …show more content…

Our services are held at chocolate factories, but our main service is at the main chocolate factory in New York. at the beginning of the service when you enter the factory, you will be presented with a chocolate offering. Before you go and take your seat at the service you have to eat your chocolate offering. One myth that is associated with chocolate-ism is that when eating your chocolate you are not allowed to bite down. If you bite down on the chocolate is is considered disrespectful to the father, you must let the chocolate melt in your mouth. After you eat your chocolate offering you must make a cross with your chest, like in catholicism. Instead of saying father, son. holy spirit you say Aztec, Maya, Olmec. On you are seated the father will begin the service. The father will read from our sacred test, the chocolate bible and the true history of chocolate. Throughout the service, when you feel lead to, you have to go to the front of the service and take a drink from the chocolate fountain. This drink will cleanse you of all of you unhappiness. The chocolate will not fully fulfill you unless you leave the fountain with a chocolate mustache. After you leave the service you will feel full of happiness and like a new person.

  • The Columbian Exchange: Chocolate

    652 Words  | 2 Pages

    Chocolate or cacao was first discovered by the Europeans as a New World plant, as the seed of the tropical Theobroma cacao tree. In Latin, Theobroma literally means: “food of the Gods” (Bugbee, Cacao and Chocolate: A Short History of Their Production and Use). Originally found and cultivated in Mexico, Central America and Northern South America, its earliest documented use is around 1100 BC. The majority of the Mesoamerican people made chocolate beverages, including the Aztecs, who made it into a beverage known as xocolātl, a Nahuatl word meaning “bitter water” (Grivetti; Howard-Yana, Chocolate: History, Culture, and Heritage). It was also a beverage in Mayan tradition that served a function as a ceremonial item. The cacao plant is g...

  • Conformity In The Chocolate War

    1194 Words  | 3 Pages

    Conformity is defined as a type of cultural influence involving a change in belief or behavior in order to fit in with a group. First studied in 1932 conformity can take on many different forms and is part of our everyday lives. Conformity can be introduced via peer pressure and/or accepted social norms. Both Hook and Anzaldua talk about conforming, economically and linguistically respectively, to society. In the book The Chocolate War by Robert Cormier the main protagonist, Jerry Renault, defies a powerful gang in school, called the Vigils, and must decide if conforming to their wishes is better than standing up against them and “defying the universe”. Both Hook and Anzaldua point out conformity in society based on pressures to meet various linguistic and economic norms. However, by understanding how our culture puts these pressures on individuals, much like how Jerry Renault discovers how the Vigils pressure people, it becomes easier for people to understand they don’t have to force themselves into a mold that doesn’t fit their language, culture, and/or economic standing.

    After moving from Culver City and into Westmont, my brother and I wanted to continue our studies at our elementary in Culver City so we commuted on three buses and the train at 5:30 in the morning. It was not easy, but it became the norm that continued onto middle school. After my brother and I graduated, we attended Venice High School; however, I would not last longer there. My math teacher wanted me out of the classroom, a class where I was the only Hispanic student, and instead wanted me to retake a math course. After unsuccessful attempts to convince school administrators and the teacher to allow me to stay in the classroom I decided to leave and attended my homeschool, Washington Preparatory High School (WPHS). I was clueless of the type of school WPHS was, but I soon would know.

    Introduction The 58 million pounds of chocolate eaten on chocolate the drenched holiday of Valentines Day is likely made from cocoa beans from West Africa. The Ivory Coast, also known as Cote D'ivoire in Africa is the source of about 35 percent of the world’s cocoa production. These cocoa beans were likely harvested by unpaid child workers that are being held captive on plantations as slaves. Chocolate companies use these cocoa plantations as their cocoa source for their chocolate products. And since the companies want to maximize their profit, they push plantation owners to lower prices, causing plantations to cut price any way possible (Philpott).

    There is nothing any better than a good piece of chocolate. Its rich, its creamy, its smooth, and it makes us feel so-o-o-o good for a few moments of course, that is; until the guilt of the calories kick in. Chocolate happens to be one of my favorite sweets. The wonderful creamy milk chocolate, bittersweet chocolate, white chocolate, or even my personal favorite a silky dark chocolate, the choices are hard. I sat down this weekend to really think about, and compare the differences. I compared my two favorite types of chocolate, milk chocolate, and dark chocolate. Milk chocolate is usually paired with nuggets, nuts, creams or caramels, but the dark chocolate is best with a wine such as a Muscat Canelli. Either makes a great desert, treat, or snack for anyone.
