"Research has shown that chocolate has a history going back thousands of years with artifacts showing traces of the cacao plant, the source of chocolate, in South America. Coincidentally, chocolate was also a favorite of L. Ron Hubbard - adventurer, explorer, humanitarian and Founder of Scientology, who travelled to South America, among many diverse realms," added Skjelset.
The Info Center's visual library has a unique story from the life and legacy of Mr. Hubbard shared by his neighbor, Gloria Padilla about this fact. Gloria first met him in 1939 as a young child and this was also when she learned of his affection for chocolate. In the vignette Gloria tells of being invited to the family lunch by his mother, Mae Hubbard, who made 'pigs in a blanket' and a seven-layer chocolate cake.
