On Tuesday, February 9 at 7pm, join the Fort Lee Public Library when they host Culinary Historian Sarah Lohman to uncover the history of chocolate, from its roots as an ancient Meso-American beverage to a contemporary melt-in-your-mouth chocolate bar. You’ll learn how a yellow, football-shaped tropical fruit transforms into high-end dark chocolate and what “Mexican Hot Chocolate” actually has in common with what Montezuma drank. We'll cover botany, "Chocolate Wars," and what makes Hershey's distinctive flavor. Register at http://tinyurl.com/flplcalenda... to receive the Zoom link.
