Title: Mystery Box of Chocolates - Do you face it like a man?
Post by: ToxicAdam on December 14, 2012, 03:48:54 PM: (http://cpwindowcleaning.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Box-of-Chocolates.jpg)

Tis the season of random people/salespeople/relatives gifting us a box of random chocolates. Are you a man and actually bite into all of them, unafraid of the menace that potentially lurks inside? Or do you break them apart and inspect them like a weak person afraid of uncertainty? Or are you even more of a coward and just take the ones that you are sure of?

Now, time to take a bite .... . arrghjhh ... orange mystery filling!!! argghjhk

Post by: nudemacusers on December 14, 2012, 03:57:19 PM: If I'm worried about poor tasting chocolates mixed in with delicious ones I've found the best strategy is to eat the entire box thus ensuring at a minimum a decent taste experience.

Post by: etiolate on December 14, 2012, 04:58:49 PM: I do sniff tests to check for that nasty cherry filling before taking a bite. You can normally smell it in them.

Post by: G The Resurrected on December 15, 2012, 01:08:44 PM: So two Christmas' ago I got a secret santa gift from work that contained a box of see's candies. On the side it said "soft centers". When I went to go and try one of the "soft centers" I bit down on a cement like candy that broke both of my back molars. I had to have two root canal's and two crowns placed on them.

I still to this day dread a box of candies I haven't chosen. I received a 2lb box this year from some family and I'll pick at a few pieces. But in reality the nasty ass flavors of the fruit filled chocolates. Plus the fear of breaking/chipping another tooth have me in fear for my life!

Fuck your mystery box of chocolates!

Also I hate it when your nose lies to you about whats inside. I was using the smell method to determine what was inside, but that doesn't work all the time. It smelled like nuts but ended up being strawberry blah.

I like cherries, I like chocolotes, I even like cherry cordials. I don't care for the cherry "creme" filled chocolotes in those assorted chocolate boxes.
