There is evidence that Native Americans were consuming pecans as far back as 10,000 years ago. The word 'pecan' is thought to have roots in the Algonquin word meaning 'hard nut to crack.' Chocolate itself is derived from the cacao plant that has a history dating back approximately 4000 years to Mesoamerica. While pecan pies were likely being eaten before the 1800s, the first official published recipe was in an issue of "Harper's Bazaar" magazine in 1886. The pecan capital of the United States is highly contested, but one place that calls themselves this is Albany, Georgia---and a 2013 Buzzfeed survey ranks pecan pie as the fourth most important pie of all-time.
