I tend to agree with Bill Ferny; If they had coffee, tea, potatoes and tomatoes, I can see no reason why they could not have had chocolate. They may not havve applied it to the same use as we do or called it by the same name, but even without direct literary evidence of it's existance in Middle-earth, it is not without probability.

Kinda sounds like a good detail for a fan-fic, joe-hobbit the inventer of hot chocolate and mocha? [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]
