How It's Made: Cocoa Beans

[@FutureAIDev2015]

When I had a TV this was my favorite show as a kid, right up there with Mythbusters

[@tkskagen]

I agree, both shows assisted with my daily allotment for my "Brain Food" to fulfill my hunger for Knowlage! Knowlage is to Life, as Life is to Knowlage.

What do you mean WHEN? 😂

[@danielkane3449]

Only legendary people watched these shows. It brings back memories

[@robblack8873]

I like this part of the show. Yes chocolate bars are made in a factory and that is fascinating in itself however showing the process of how the actual plants grow and how they harvest them is just as enthralling. :)

[@DashDrones]

Just as? It's so much better than watching robots work..

[@Filbie]

I’m glad this made it into the lineup! I desperately wanted to go to a cacao farm when I visited Costa Rica but ran out of time to do so. Now at least I can see it virtually! 🥰

[@SinCityRaider81]

Reminds of Sam Van Aken a professor at Syracuse, Who grafted 40 types of fruit onto one tree Incredible!

[@seronymus]

So this is how my Costco chicken bake is made. That's a BOOM! 💥

[@mousefarm]

The process is quite complicated! And for the end result, it's great

[@FanaticEvanescence]

The first time I ate cocoa beans straight from the fruit was 15 years ago. Me and my friends took it from someone's tree lol and I didn't know that the beans were bitter. Good old time.

[@tkskagen]

With these "older" videos such as this, it would be nice to have the Original Air Date posted in the first 3 seconds of the video. Strictly as a reference.

[@leolockhart2793]

Not sure if you still needed it, but I did a quick google for this. The cocoa beans section was aired with speed skates, synthetic rubber, and bulk chocolate, on May 13, 2011.

[@CS-uc2oh]

There is no reason why you need that information. Literally no reason at all. People like you are exhausting.

[@thestoryblender8420]

The process is pretty complex! And to the final result, the chocolate itself, there are plenty extra steps! How come someone discovered it? Mindblowing!

[@nightvisiongoggles]

Some Mayan dude had lots of free time

[@CS-uc2oh]

Low IQ comment. This process is as simple as it gets. Pick the pods, take the seeds out, let them sit until the pulp dissolves, dry them, bag and ship them. Good grief!

babe wake up new how its made reupload just dropped

[@amirh.926]

thank you very much

[@wangraphaela8564]

I know little about cocoa beans, but I have decided to plant the tree. Just because I enjoy the pleasure of studying in the cocoa forest and the process of making chocolate myself. I am starting a cocoa plantation ecosystem by hand in Hainan Province, China.Hope you guys could help me on that and welcome if you could join me and devote in healthy ecosystem.🌹

[@nathanjoerndt8804]

so there are four varieties of cocoa beans!!! forastero,criollo,trinitaeio,nacional :D

[@justtuningin3443]

Where’s the child labor? Totally skipped over that bit and took us straight to the factory didn’t ya?

[@akiraigarashi2874]

That is irrelevant to this show even if true

[@joepeoria791]

You saw them kids holding the bag of beans

[@benjoseph25]

You also skipped to the part where you let kids do labour by means of "chores"

[@youtubegarbage7876]

Those workers are 18. Promise. They make plenty of money and have a good life. That's why your chocolate bar costs 99 cents. Don't think abtou it too much.

[@tedundercarriage8183]

the suffering makes them taste better 🤤

[@2degucitas]

In some places the fermented cocoa fruit liquid is draiined off and used.

[@BoldRealities]

We had cocoa plantation that was acres of land which we used to harvest time to time not until realtor came to destroy everything.

[@hairlesscoconut3110]

You forgot to mention slavery and child labor.

[@joannagarraway8114]

So children are not to learn to do anything I disagree this is not child slavery they like helping

[@ghostface0927]

What evidence do you have to support this? This video shows them harvesting but it could have been their own farm or they could have been getting paid. You statement is pure conjecture

[@sebastianriz4703]

This isnt slavery lmaooooo. Peoplr are so fucking soft.

[@DraftedByTheMan]

When are the beans roasted?

[@theargonaught44]

the child labor! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Try01]

How is Cocoa Beans fermented ???

[@Sansatu23]

yeah that’s some child labor right there……

[@Socrates-the-First]

Please note that the name of the plant is CACAO, not COCOA. This is just a centuries old misspelling in English that persisted. In all other languages only CACAO is used. Please also note that there is no such thing as cacao BEANS. The Cacao fruit contains SEEDS. BEANS are produced by legumes, like the soy plant and lentils.

[@wangraphaela8564]

cacao pod contains cacao beans.

[@kimbratton9620]

Sweet!

[@RIlianP]

Ahh, they didn't omit the child labor, nice.

[@anonymously241]

We have a coco tree 🌲🎄

[@imranfazal5942]

A lion's share is made by choclatiers in West and a very meager earning goes to the farmer who work and takes care for it for five to six months. Which is how the developed world has learnt to exploit the third world. Another misery is that the farm in Africa belongs to the landlord and those who work there are paid even lesser.

[@jeremysolly7757]

Why does he keep saying coca beans, aren't they cocoa beans? 🤔

[@chocomach]

great

[@Rick0430]

And here I thought all chocolate just came from a factory in Pennsylvania.

[@latenighter1965]

If the bean is the "seed" why not just plant them to grow new ones? nature used to do that and they are still here for us to muck up our way.

[@terribletrench]

Grafting is faster.

[@MadTrump]

it would take 20 years to mature

[@katharina...]

This is video is not about cocoa beans, but about cacao beans - there's a difference. Cacao is raw, only going through the fermentation process described in the video. Cocoa is a processed (at high temperature) and therefore less nutritious version of the same bean. For any fans of dark chocolate, I'd recommend cacao nibs - it's pure, raw, unprocessed, sugar free, super nutritious goodness!

[@animequeen78]

Also, if you want the chocolate flavor without the melty mess, they'll work.

[@apollomacgregor6534]

or is it?

[@katharina...]

@@apollomacgregor6534 It is.

[@tedundercarriage8183]

did you not see them processing them in the video...?

[@katharina...]

@@tedundercarriage8183 Nope. Show me exactly where they are processing the cacao beans at high temperature in this video. You can't because they don't. Look here 5:04 - the bags are labeled as "Organic Cacao of Costa Rica" - had these beans been processed at high temperature, the bags would have been labeled "Organic Cocoa of Costa Rica". This video is about cacao, not about cocoa.

[@austenoliviawheeler3993]

Reminds me of Larry boy and the bad apple (veggie tales)

[@austenoliviawheeler3993]

You know the Adorable religious children’s series

[@dealanabruce1034]

Cocoa is pronounced Coco, the A is silent. And the raw Cocoa beans are pronounced Cacao, C. A as in apple C. A. O as in cow. Coca is a completely different plant, the Coca plant is known worldwide for its psychoactive alkaloid, cocaine. It's also how Coca-cola originally got its name, from processed Coca leaves. So it's too bad you messed up your presentation by calling Cocoa beans by the wrong names.

How do they taste raw?

[@TheLOL9842]

Very very bitter. Try dark chocolate 70 or 80% that is close but not completely

[@kianweeking1044]

Very bitter. You can buy 99% chocolate and that's close.

[@PerceptionVsReality333]

Nasty ASF.

[@katharina...]

They are super delicious to many people, though quite bitter indeed. I buy raw cacao nibs, and I eat them with dried tart cherries - about 5 cherries and a pinch of cacao nibs at a time. It's pure heaven to me, so delicious and so nutritious. If you don't enjoy dark chocolate though, cacao nibs are probably not for you.
