A World Without Chocolate - Brazil



Brazil was the second-largest exporter of cocoa until an act of bioterrorism destroyed the crop. Ninety percent of the cocoa plantations were lost. More than 250,000 rural workers became unemployed and moved to the cities, where they then built favelas. Nowadays, Brazil produces cocoa mainly to satisfy internal consumption.
