bunyip from Melbourne, VIC

Only a little book, but it has a bibliography if you want to know more. A fascinating history of the social and political history of chocolate (often produced, even today, by slave labour).

Among other things it covers the class implications of packaging and the longstanding feminine associations of chocolate - no surprise to Tim Tam lovers.
