AGUARA-TUNPA

Guaraní Cocoa God

Also known as Aguara

Fox God who invented carob, the vegan alternative to chocolate

He is more or less the God of Chocolate we’ve been searching for all these years.

As anyone who’s ever hobnobbed with foxes will know, they’re very partial to candy. A wild fox offered cookies will practically eat out of your hand. But please do not try this at home.
