There couldn't have been chocolate in Middle-Earth at that "time" because it came from south America.
It's been said before on this thread, but potatoes and tobacco (ie pipeweed) came from the Americas too (darn you Americans for my addiction [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ). Given that it is a fantasy world, I see no reason why they should not also have had chocolate (or coco beans at least).
