Plenny of freepers like chocolate, and plenny of freepers like the RevWar, so this seemed perfect. I ALMOST put it in Breaking News, but I restrained myself.

Living 20 miles down wind from Hershey, PA, I can tell you that there it's something special when the chocolate workers come out at noon for lunch.
The air is rich with the smell of chocolate!

Cradle of Chocolate?
by Roger Segelken
Oct. 8, 1998
Digging through history to a time before agriculture, archaeologists from Cornell University and the University of California at Berkeley have found evidence of a village that was continuously occupied from 2000 B.C. to A.D. 1000 as well as hints to the secret of the community's remarkable longevity.
"My guess is, it all comes down to chocolate," says John S. Henderson, professor of anthropology at Cornell and co-director, together with Rosemary Joyce of Berkeley, of the archaeological dig at Puerto Escondido, Honduras. The type of ceremonial pottery uncovered by the archaeologists points to that region of Mesoamerica as a possible "Cradle of Chocolate."

Hi All-
The caffeine in the chocolate probably helped keep the soldiers alert. My understanding is that there is a chemical property in chocolate that also enhances mood.
