Chocolate has become such an everyday part of our lives that it’s hard to believe that it has a long, complicated and often dark history stretching back to the 15th Century.   In this special episode of Eat My Globe, our host, Simon Majumdar, interviews UCLA Department of History Professor Teofilo Ruiz. Simon and Professor Ruiz will discuss some of the impacts that followed the introduction of chocolate to the Old World.   So make sure to follow along every week and follow us on: Twitter: @EatMyGlobePcast Instagram: @EatMyGlobe Facebook: @EatMyGlobeOfficial   Twitter: @SimonMajumdar Instagram: @SimonMajumdar Facebook: @SimonMajumdarPage LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/simon-majumdar-2760156 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/EatMyGlobe ------------ Produced & Distributed by: Producergirl Productions ------------ New episodes every Monday!
