Cacao has been a spiritual symbol for Indigenous people in Central America for thousands of years. When the modern chocolate industry took over, much of the plant's sacred use was lost. Today, people in Guatemala are bringing back the ritual of drinking pure cacao.
Both Izaias and Keith sell their cacao online:

As a Guatemalan I can tell: We do not believe in cultural appropiation. If you take to your country clothing or things made here and you share it with others it is actually appreciated. The most people gets to know our culture, then more opportunities for our communities to shine. Do not let this "cultural appreciation" sh*t to stop you from showing yourself with things from our country

From my understanding at least from the native populations in my area, the cultures want to be known and shared, but people don't like when an aspect of that culture being told or demonstrated incorrectly or half assed by people outside said community. Which I can understand. Because then misinformation or misunderstanding forms? I agree though, I think we should all appreciate cultures we're involved in, and share methods and knowledge with each other respectfully.

I'm from Guatemala and is super common to drink cacao or eat cacao (not chocolate) at any occasion, you can find it easily in any supermarkets like Wal-Mart or any street market. The actual Maya communities traditions are a Mix of the ancient Maya cosmovision and Christianity, mostly evangelical. Cacao is and always been a traditional drink and food here, nothing new.

The process of processing and consuming pure cacao is the subject here, that's what you get when you buy one of the brick, pure raw processed chocolate, no sugar, no cinnamon, that's the original recipe and it is way over 3,000 years old, did she add cinnamon to her drink? Yes, but she never claimed that it was the original way to make it. I mean, unless I missed something? So yes, when you buy the product cinnamon is not even mentioned in the packaging, it say says, PURE CACAO PASTE. How and the fudge you got so many likes for such a foolish comment is beyond me.

I'm an Anthropologist from Guatemala the truth behind this is a new form of colonialism and terrible cultural appropriation. Rich foreign people taking the land from indigenous communities to create successful businesses, and selling maya spirituality to white hippies that are in a journey "to find themselves". It's so sad the way turists wear mayan textiles without any respect or knowledge of the meaning of each type of textile. This is why Mayan weavers are fighting to create a new law to protect the intellectual property rights of mayan textiles, and also they are fighting against all these fake organisations that pretend to "empower the poor indigenous ones" but in reality get cheap labour and success in the tourist market.

People that think cacao is chocolate, you are in for a shock. Cacao is NOT sweet. Europeans mixed the sugar. Moctezuma drank "Shokolatl", it had NO sugar, it was HOT, made with water (not milk). Drink for the Gods, and without the sugary taste it does taste a little like coffee without sugar. I take my coffee black and hot. I always wondered why, now I know; I like cacao drink since I was a kid.

The traditions looks similar to Sanathan (Hindu) traditions. Everyone have to respect their origins and ancient traditions and add modern touches to suit today world.
