The Aztecs enjoyed wearing expensive jewelry like earrings, bangles, and necklaces as a display of wealth. They grew and ate staple foods like maize, also known as sweet corn, alongside other crops such as cocoa beans, which they used as currency, drank as a chocolate beverage, and crafted into chocolate food items. The Aztecs ruler Moctezuma was known to drink fifty cups of hot chocolate daily from his golden goblet.
