I told C that chocolate is made from beans. She, of course, thought that I was just trying to tease her about beans because she doesn't like beans.
Well, Alexis sent me a link with pictures. Read all about chocolate from the seed to the bean to the candy bar and cake.

When we were in Grenada this year, we did a tour of a cocoa plantation and actually ate some chocolate in its natural form. Tasted rather citrus-y actually.
I wondered what chocolate in natural form would taste like. Occasionally when I eat chocolate or vanilla, I think it tastes a bit "fruity," but I've wondered if that was just me. I wonder if I could learn to like it apart from all the added sugars...
Definitely go to the Caribbean, then, and try it for yourself!
