Coffee

Why is it that in the “West” we consume almost all the coffee that is grown almost exclusively in South America, South Asia and Africa? The only Angolans I’ve ever seen drink coffee are the ones that are “westernized” or trying to be.

How is it that the Swiss are known for the chocolate they produce and dominate the market of this product, when they haven’t even had colonies and all the cocoa is produced very far away from their borders? I think in Benguela I’m one of the few to buy chocolate every once in a while, along with the foreign doctors and a few NGO employees.

Puzzles, to which so far I haven’t even been able to find the slightest hint of a solution!
