Ok billion dollar idea: selectively breed yeast until it can make it. I leave the details as an exercise for the reader.

Cocoa isn't a single compound, if you extracted the pure chemical everyone claims is chocolate, you'd be very disappointed. Your goal is still theoretically possible, just a lot harder than the usual yeast and E. Coli synthesis targets.

Would it help you solve the problem if I acted like one of those tech "visionaries" fired half your coworkers, posted problematic stuff on social media, stole your credit, worked you to the bone, and then micromanaged your output at the last moment?

Cause I am just saying I already own a black turtleneck and wear glasses.

It's certainly worth trying!

That's the kinda synergy team player attitude I like. I will have a temp worker contact you about onboarding after the first round of venture funding. Thinking a billion.
