[Brian L. Rygg or Laura Barbee-Rygg]

    Raoghnailt's other half here.  The following  was posted on the
SCA-HUMOR list.  Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Sigh, I suspect the Chocolate Goddess must be invoked at Potrero.  Duke
Adrian gave me the gift of a logical explanation for Chocolate in the
SCA.

Modern merchants sell Carob as an equivalent-substitute for Chocolate.

Therefore, Chocolate = Carob

Carob is demonstrably period, also called Manna or Saint John's Bread
[for the early summertime ripening of the sweet pods].

Therefore, we can call Chocolate "Mock Saint John's Bread" and eat it
too.
