There is a theory that this is how coffee originated - someone over cooked the berry brew and roasted the beans.

I often wonder how coffee or chocolate were discovered since there are many steps involved in making each. It's not like someone long ago tasted a bean and thought it was great it's a complicated way to get to the end product.

Add olives to that. The raw fruit is inedible — at least the green fresh olive I once tried was.
