Oh! How disappointing!

Christine I'm like that. I have a favourite chocolate bar (dark choc and mousse) which I can't always find.
To my shame, when DD1 and her partner were staying with us she gave him one from my stash, I jumped up and snatched it out of his hand . I did give him a different one instead, but he didn't like it.

My husband rearranges things in a different container hoping I won't notice he's eaten some! On subject of empty boxes we found an old Warham mer box recently in a top never visited cupboard. Texted son excitedly to tell him. Dusted box. Opened it. It was empty! He said he couldn't believe we have kept an empty box for 20 years!!

Question: should you keep chocolate in the fridge?

Annie, While and whilst are both correct, but whilst which I prefer is slightly more old fashioned.

Jalima - no you definitely shouldn't keep chocolate in the fridge ...... It's much better to put it in your tummy

Cherrytree69 The singer was Elvis Costello's dad Ross McManus, who also wrote the song, but the actor was Julian Chagrin.

Keep mine in fridge. Tastes even nicer!

I used to hide my chocolate in the old unused spin dryer which had stuff stacked on top but our daughter found it in there! Who would look on an old rusty spin dryer?

I wish she would come and find the choc eggs I bought for this years Easter egg hunt and the Christmas table cloth from 2 years ago, oh and last years holiday maps and info which must all be hiding away somewhere.

We also have the empty packet put back in the cupboard syndrome. But equally annoying, wrappers left on the worktop within a few inches of the waste bin.

thanks for the advice - it most definitely was!! All gone now

TriciaF I completely understand your reaction, it was not at all OTT. Some people just do not understand the importance of chocolate.

You had a lucky escape then! A moment on the lips, forever on the hips as they say.
