Geocache Description:



„Pirati ne vole čokoladu“, zbog porasta popularnosti pijenja čokolade u 17. stoljeću, španjolske kolonije Južne Amerike poslale su brodove kakao zrna natrag u Španjolsku. U to je vrijeme samo španjolci su poznavali tajnu kako pretvoriti kakao zrna u čokoladu, pa su gusari bili prilično nezadovoljni kad su uhvatili brodove tih „bezvrijednih“ zrna, za koje se priča da su ih zgroženo odbacivali s broda.


„Piraten mögen keine Schokolade“, wegen der steigenden Popularität des Schokoladentrinkens im 17. Jahrhundert schickten die spanischen Kolonien Südamerikas Schiffsladungen mit Kakaobohnen zurück nach Spanien. Zu dieser Zeit kannten nur die Spanier das Geheimnis, wie man Kakaobohnen in Schokolade umwandelt. Also waren die Piraten ziemlich angewidert, wenn sie Schiffsladungen dieser „wertlosen“ Bohnen erbeuteten – sie sollen Bootsladungen angeekelt über Bord geworfen haben.


“Pirates don’t like chocolate”, due to the rise in popularity of chocolate drinking in the 17th century, the Spanish colonies of South America sent boatloads of cacao beans back to Spain. At this time, only the Spanish knew the secret of how to turn cacao beans into chocolate, so pirates were rather miffed when they captured shiploads of these “worthless” beans, they are reported to have thrown boat loads of them overboard in disgust.
