Where do these chocolates come frome? I heard "Gondor trades with Tauredain (something completly implausible) and Gondor gives it to High Elves (again, completly implausible).

So, how do High Elves get these things again? It's not like High Elves sent merchants all around Middle-earth to obtain chocolate (Rivendell Wanderers are different, because they have no destination in mind). Gondor would never send ships so far south to get mere foodstuffs, because they'd be in great danger of being ambushed by corsairs of Umbar. Even if they did manage to get a ship down there, Gondor would have to know for sure that they aren't evil (something I wouldn't count on. They probably believe most people from Harad are with Sauron. They'd probably think these guys supply Near Harad with elephants), and then they'd need to speak their language (I highly doubt they speak Westron).
