Patrick Edward McGovern ca. 7000-6600 B.C. It was a mixed fermented beverage of rice, honey, and grape and/or hawthorn ("Crataegus pinnatifida" and "C. cuneata") fruit. The laboratory and collaborators began studying some of the most ancient chocolate from ancient Mesoamerica (ca. 1400-1100 B.C.) in 2004 Jars from Puerto Escondido in Honduras were in the shape of the cacao ("Theobroma cacao") pod or fruit, as if to advertise the contents as being a chocolate beverage. The fruit's sweet pulp contains about 15% sugar, which naturally ferments to a 5 to 7% alcoholic beverage. This beverage might have led to the domestication of the tree.
CACAO CACAO CACAO is a research Java Virtual Machine developed at TU Wien. It compiles the class binaries while running (no interpreter), resulting in faster execution. It is an academic project, originally developed by students doing practical training or diploma theses on specific topics. The first version of CACAO was released at 1997 as a faster replacement for Sun's implementation of the Java Virtual Machine, which at that time only had an interpreter. Current Sun virtual machines also use just-in-time compiling. CACAO gained traction after becoming a free software project in 2004, distributed under the term of the GNU General Public
