To change the subject just slightly

Apparently a certain quaker that lived in SA during the early 1900s had a fondness for chocolate (or at least recognised their commercial value).

His name was Alfred E. Haigh.

It doesn't mention it on the company website, but it is yet another things the quakers got right.
