the first chocolate was invented in AD 600, by the Aztecs. But, it wasn't like a chocolate bar or anything, it was a drink which tasted bitter and disgusting because there was no milk, or even sugar. However, the first chocolatebar like the ones we eat now where properly invented by Herni Nestle 1875, which had added milk, and in the shape of a BAR!
