Fortunately, the indigenous origins of chocolate as a natural resource have allowed the developing world a critical income based largely on our obsession for more and more chocolate. Well, . . . it\u2019s hard to write that sentence without screaming, honestly. Beneath our love for the ubiquitous cookie churns a generations-long nightmare of slavery and abuse.<\/span><\/p>\n

It began very soon after Mama Ka\u2019Kaw was \u201cdiscovered\u201d by the Europeans when they first \u201cexplored\u201d the \u201cNew World.\u201d\u00a0 It is not at all surprising that early explorers quickly loved the cocoa drink; and neither that the richest Europeans were among the first (and only) who could afford it. Most \u201chistories\u201d of chocolate articles recount the spread of the drink through Spain by Dominican friars, the additions of wine or coffee to the drink, the London chocolate cafes, or the courts of Louis XIV where the palace treated chocolate as an aphrodisiac. Ah, the wonders of Dutch who converted it to \u201ceating chocolate\u201d by adding sugar! Ah, the values of its caffeine and natural healing properties assured by early doctors! (See Hart, \u201cHistory of Chocolate,\u201d \u201cDiscovering Chocolate\u201d)<\/span><\/p>\n

But what don\u2019t these histories recount? When the Aztec Empire fell to Cortez, killing over 250,000 people, chocolate began to flow to Europe. And once Europe sugared it for taste, both cocoa and sugar became non-negotiable crops. Of course, farming either is difficult, even back-breaking work, so it was unsuited to those who would pay for chocolate. But if the crop was industrialized under slavery? Absolutely!\u00a0 And so, while the indigenous peoples of Central America were indentured to grow a crop they considered a gift of the gods (the Encomienda system primarily; see \u201cThe Intertwined History\u201d), so too was West Africa re-designed for cocoa crops, and now nearly \u2154 of cocoa comes from there (Duducu). Beyond this, of the millions of slaves transported to the Americas in the same era, nearly \u2154 were set to growing sugar, vital to the chocolate trade (\u201cThe Intertwined History\u201d).<\/span><\/p>\n

Each of these images, taken by me at the 2016-2017 exhibition at the DIA, shows a powerful contrast: the rich and white consume the luxury of chocolate while the poor and black serve it as an obligation within their social class. Black and other minority indentured are the ubiquitous background of all things chocolate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Hanging out in the background of our Obsession with Sweetness is a none-too-moral history of classism, slavery, and genocide. Chocolate, once an indulgence of the elite who could pay for it, fast became accessible and commonplace to everyone once slavery dropped the price. It\u2019s a simple model of economics: drop cost to increase sales; make profit on quantity. And, to avoid the disgust of human rights abuses, be certain that your market is not geographically close to your \u201cproduction sites.\u201d\u00a0 And though we may reasonably argue that chocolate did not cause slavery, it\u2019s harder to argue that we are not doing exactly that right now. <\/span><\/p>\n

Today, our current obsession with sweetness, with chocolate, with chocolate chip cookies, is directly fueling slavery (and deforestation) in several parts of the world. This is a larger essay that I have partially acknowledged in 2011 (Chisnell), but too few of us are more than entranced by the delicious fix of fresh-baked cookies with Hershey\u2019s chocolate chips, Nestle Toll House cookies, or, worse, Chips Ahoy! which uses chocolate from Mondelez Corporation, one of the worst offenders in non-certified chocolates (\u201cIs You Chocolate Produced By Child Labor\u201d). The two most popular cookie brands (Oreo and Girl Scout Cookies), also take their chocolate from Mondelez and Ferrero, the two worst companies out there besides Godiva. The American fresh-baked goodness of the chocolate chip cookie hides the long history of colonialism and slavery, and while our history books too often glibly dispose of slavery after a 19th century war, it is practiced still more nearly 200 years later.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So we go ahead and eat them. After all, if we cannot see the slavery, we can still feel special with chocolate chip cookies each and every day we eat them. And let\u2019s be clear: the United States is the #1 consumer of chocolate chip cookies. Americans each eat an average of 35,000 cookies in our lifetimes (that\u2019s a cookie a day for 95 years, for those calculating). And the United States manufactures 7 billion cookies each year (Bills). It\u2019s not merely an injustice we commit in supporting slave chocolate: it\u2019s a gross injustice in every sense.<\/span><\/p>\n

Once upon a time in America, chocolate was sacred. It was a slow and thoughtful meditation on our relationship with nature and the gods. But over time and conquest, we have replaced that divine meditation with a kind of monstrous \u201cchoco-vorism,\u201d a thoughtless consumption of cookies with no sense of guilt or shame or sin, though all three might well be present. To repair our consciousness won\u2019t be easy–and it won\u2019t merely be about hoping for Fair Trade Certifications, even though I am a personal participant in that very fight. It will require, I think, a re-imagining of our relationship with others and with the earth itself. No small order.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
