I found this quite fascinating and I loved that you showed what it looks like, explained it's smell, and tasted it. I would never guess that it's a got a tropical scent/taste (not sure why since it looks like a papaya crossed with a bitter melon on the outside and the inside does have similarities to other tropical fruits. It must take so many of those seeds to make chocolate - holy cow!

Okay, this was very interesting, I never expected the inside of it to look like it did, and the slimy part of the seed pod I am glad that you were brave enough to try it, cause I was very hesitant after seeing what it looked like. Thanks for sharing.

This was very interesting. When you first took a smell, I was sniffing too. LOL. Really didn't look like I expected on the inside. I'll take your word that the slime was tasty. Thanks for sharing!

When you opened the pod and I saw what was in it, all I could think of was pod people from Invasion of the Body Snatchers starring Donald Sutherland. Your experience seemed much more pleasant.

Has anyone ever told you that you look like the Property Brothers? Maybe with a very slight Asian twist (are you part Asian by any chance. :)

That's interesting - where did you get that? I regularly eat raw cacao beans, but I wonder if they have been fermented? How do you ferment them?

I think that pod would look good in amongst a fall display. Thank you for all your videos this year, and I hope 2020 is a great one for you!
