Have you ever wondered how people get chocolate from? In this article we’ll enter the amazing world of chocolate so you can understand exactly what you’re eating.

Chocolate starts with a tree called the cacao tree. This tree grows in equatorial regions, especially in places such as South Africa, Africa and Indonesia. The cacao tree produces a fruit about the size of a small pine apple. Inside the fruit are tree’s seeds, also known as cocoa beans.

The beans are fermented for about a week, dried in the sun and then shipped to the chocolate maker. The chocolate maker starts by roasting the beans to bring out the flavor. Different beans from different places have different qualities and flavor, so they are often sorted and blended to produce a distinctive mix. Next, the roasted beans are winnowed. Winnowing removes the meat nib of the cacao bean from its shell. Then, the nibs are blended. The blended nibs are ground to make it a liquid. The liquid is called chocolate liquor. It tastes bitter. All seeds contain some amount of fat, and cacao beans are not different. However, cacao beans are half fat, which is why the ground nibs from liquid. It’s pure bitter chocolate.

The kinds of gas fuel used in cookers and gas fires come from three sources. The first kind is made of coal; while the third, natural gas, is almost entirely methane.

Geologist believe that natural gas rose into the rock holes in the sandstone, and was prevented from escaping upwards out of the sandstone by a ‘cap’ rock usually a form of rock salt which formed a dome over the natural reservoir of gas.

In Jakarta and other big cities in Indonesia it is common practice to use gas for cooking. Gas reaches the houses through large underground pipes called gas mains, and smaller pipes called sewage pipes lead to the gas meters in each house or building. The meter records how much gas is used.

Natural gas from oil has no distinctive smell, so adding small quantities of concentrated adroitness; to enable people to detect any leak that may accrue produces an artificial smell.

Pertamina sells bottled gas under the name of ‘Elpiji’. The gas is put in steel drums or cylinders. People who live in places without a piped supply use bottled gas, by yachtsmen and campers. Indonesia’s role in LNG production started in 1977 with the initiation of the LNG facility at Bontang. About a year later plant at Arun also started production and exportation.

The Crow and the Pitcher of Water

In the spreading branches of a leafy old tree there lived a wise old crow. All day long he would fly over town and villages in searching of food. He would meet other birds and animals, makes friends and gather news. In the evenings he would return to his home in the old tree, content with the way his day had been spent.

One year, the rain was late, and the land was hit by a terrible drought. The water in the ponds and lakes and rivers began to dry up. Birds, animals and even people were dying of thirst. The pond on the banks of which the old tree grew was shrinking every day till one morning it vanished completely. The crow was worried – how long could he carry on?

He flew all day in searching of water. He had almost given up, when he suddenly saw an earthen pitcher lying half-buried in the dried up mud of a village pond. At the very bottom of the pitcher there was water. But the pitcher was deep, its neck too narrow and the crow could not reach the water. What was he to do?

The crow looked around saw that the ground was strewn with pebbles. He began to throw pebble after pebble into the pitcher until the water in the pot had raised enough for him to drink.
