Default Source of intact cacao pods

Hi all,

Does anyone know of a North American source of intact cacao pods? I'd like
a few - to examine, display, whatever. I've Googled around and found
nothing, not even overseas...

Thanks,
Geoff

Thanks, Scott - but these sites list only cacao beans, not the beans still
in the pod, which is what I'm looking for.

I saw them recently at the Chocolate Show in NYC. Try the Cote d'Ivoire
Embassy in NY- they would have access to info like that. Of, look at the
Chocolate Show website- it lists the vendors, I think.
