CHOCOLATE=CACAO: The Revolution Will Be Eaten


By Erica Snowlake

Americans have an unfortunate history of being kept in the Dark - though in one unique arena we have intentionally been kept out of the Dark for way too long. Which Dark Realm are we Forbidden Now and how do we breakthrough to join in it’s healing and beneficial revolution?


We are all eternally blessed to enter into communion with the Highest Bliss-inducing Portal on our Mothership Earth through ingestion of one of Her Most Supreme Offerings. Hint: Valentine’s Day Gifts!!! Heart Shaped Box. Surrender ye unto the Anandamide spell of Raw Dark Chocolate, Theobroma Cacao, Food of the Gods and Goddesses. Live long and prosper, heal and soothe your heart, increase sensuality in your loveflesh, double joy and beauty, nourish your intellect, laxative your innard karma.

Chocolate and Humanity go way back together, swinging gleefully from jungle trees, early primitivos discovered cacao fruit berries fertilized by gnats hanging as papaya-like beanpod grasping devices! Broken open and crushed ala stone mortar and pestle, cacao (ka-kow, rhymes with cow) shamans have been fortifying the tribes forever by unleashing unlimited high-energy potentials, i.e. faster and furiouser swinging in trees, and probably, the first epic arboreal lovemaking. Cacao’s powerful aphrodisiac and appetite-inhibiting qualities granted our lucky ancestors total liberation to Love All Day Long!

Synchronizing with the Mayan and Aztec calendar/cultures, who so revered Cacahuatl, Bitter Water, ceremonially as thee Religious Sacrement and Currency of the Realm, we are now entering a new appreciation and awareness of what chocolate is really about, and how our symbiotic/ synergistic relationship has evolved. Take a good look at what passes for chocolate today in the U.S. - it’s a joke, hershey’s kisses, m’n m’s, nestles cocoa, milk chocolate? the chocolatiers of Europe have been laughing at us for decades, their exquisite recipes basically shunned, import-banned and registered illegal by the multi-corp sugar death and trans fats/cholesterol/heart attack cartels for the general american public. we are in major denial, a nation in chocolate guilt, why? cause something so good has been co-opted by demons.

Let’s explore a woman’s cravings for chocolate around her moontime. She knows intuitively some of the more than 300 compounds found in raw cacao paste, making it one of the most chemically complex foods on earth, will set her just right hormonally. Here’s the breakdown of what she’s really desiring:

1) Magnesium: cacao contains the #1 source of magnesium of all foods. Magnesium balances brain chemistry, builds bones, brings happiness, and, coincidentally, is the most deficient mineral in over 80% of our population.

2) Phenylethlamine: an adrenal-healing related chemical created in the brain and naturally released when we are in Love. PEA increases focus and alertness by pumping serotonin levels, a.k.a. Nature’s Prozac.

3) Anti-oxidants: raw cacao has been dubbed the “new red wine”, containing four times as many anti-oxidants as red wine, and six times the total of green tea.

4) Anandamide: the Bliss Chemical! a Mysterious Ambrosia secreted by our bindis when we’re feeling compassion for all Sentient Beings, the kind of Guru Bliss we’ve all got shining inside our flowering Kundalinis.

5) Tryptophan: hmmmm, relaxing, an internal oozing massage......

So our sensuous Punany poetess seeks a raw cacao treat, but it’s hard to find, so she settles on some chocolate imitation. What happens next is raging nightmare; the white sugar, bad fats combo in most commercial chocolate cause an overproduction of insulin, which not only exacerbates her PMS, but induces candida and diabetes in everyone from habitual use. Punanys Beware! chocolate as an addiction is thus born.

In contrast, the sugars used in raw cacao treats are organic; agave nectar, raw honey, yacon root syrup, maple sugar, date paste. Raw chocolatiers also add superfoods such as maca, blue-green algae, spirulina, chlorella, and bee pollen, (the world’s most complete food). Ask cacao what it’s favorite allies are and it will reply Kola Nut, Chillies, Cinnamon, Maize, Vanilla, and GANJA! Cacao becomes a potent medicine united with it’s allies, a veritable Elixir of Healing Love.

Support the Cacao Revolution! Lovers Lead the Way! Seek your source of cacao from fair trade collectives in countries along the 20 degrees north and south tropical equatorial zone, the top producers being the Ivory Coast, Ghana, Indonesia, Nigeria, Brazil, Cameroon, Ecuador, Dominican Republic, New Guinea, and Malaysia.

P.S. we doubt there ever was a St. Valentine. More likely, some Pope Gelasius I in 496 decided to co-opt/nullify the wild pagan festival Lupercalia, in which women were flagellated by wolfmen wielding thongwhipskins of goats and dogs to induce fertility and divine spring joy! The word February comes from the root word for fever, obviously we the people have always possessed a passion for purification.
