Remind us again why you want to be a US Citizen?

You buy stale chocolate and then say its the company's fault. It is the fault of the store's storage.

Most of the time, that's purely a cosmetic issue that occurs when chocolate is stored improperly. Unless it has been stored for way too long, then it will also affect flavor and texture. But that's what the "best by" stamp is for.

Those cadburys eggs have shrunk though....by quite a bit and I don't care who's fault that is, it should be criminal
