Before making anything with a cacao pod there are different things you need to do with it. In this case we're not making chocolate but cacao pulp and husk additives for flavor and pectin.
Also we unexpectedly found out that you can also eat part of the pod itself. It's not very flavorful and it's quite slimy but in the end it can keep you from being hungry if you have nothing else. It reminds me a little bit of the pad of a prickly pear cactus, minus the spines.
