Correct. Nothing worse than chocolate that is basically melting. Ice cream is improved with a bit of crunch. And obviously the king of kings is mint choc chip. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to beat a good quality vanilla ice cream Hmm. Choc ices (a Magnum is just a fancy one) are decent, so will have to disagree there. There's definitely a discussion to be had about what chocolate should be cold though. 12 minutes ago, BigFatTabbyDave said: Get a grip, man. This is right up there with "the anus is for output only" in the Big Book of Wrongthink. That's quite enough from you. 7 minutes ago, die hard doonhamer said: This is just plain wrong. Chocolate should be stored in the fridge, it's much better when it is cold. Only certain things. In fact a limited list. Crunchies and Wispas would go in the fridge. Most others I can think of should be stored in a sealed tub in a cupboard, away from sunlight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Poorer quality chocolate isn't badly affected by the fridge. Nestle standard is the borderline, so anything Mars quality and above should be room temperature and cadbury and below you can do what you like with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 "Transport for London (TfL) said the art was removed "some days ago" in line with its "strict anti-graffiti policy". The work, called If You Don't Mask, You Don't Get, features a number of rats in pandemic-inspired poses and wearing face masks. One rodent stencilled on the Circle Line train appears to be sneezing, while another is shown spraying anti-bacterial gel. The artist's name is also daubed across the driver's door of a train. The statement from TfL said it appreciated "the sentiment of encouraging people to wear face coverings". "We'd like to offer Banksy the chance to do a new version of his message for our customers in a suitable location," it added." That unfunny, derivative, flatulent w****r Banksy should be facing a jail sentence for trespass and vandalism, not being invited to spray walls with his unoriginal pish. Pity he wasn't Brazilian, some Met Cop might have shot him. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's from the same patter vacuum that sees numpties send Hulk Hogan pictures of Harold Shipman/Jimmy Saville and pretending it's their grandparent who is dying in the hope Hulk gives them a shout out.

Bairnardo Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I am fairly sure that anyone who actually knows anything about chocolate would tell you it should be enjoyed at room temperature. That it exists in refrigerated/frozen form is akin to shops putting Buckfast in the fridge. It will make money, because morons. Therefore it doesnt matter how wrong it is. People who eat chocolate from the fridge are almost certainly on a government watchlist. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Hitler Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I am basically in agreement that chocolate should be enjoyed at room temperature. It's a bit nasty if it's too cold. The only reason to put chocolate in the fridge is to prevent it being melted before you even open it, on the rare days that it's warm enough for that to happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a scenario for you: Get bag of maltesers - allow to melt slightly - fridge/freeze for a few hours - enjoy a sort of chocolate and honeycomb helix as they temper back together 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melted refrigerated Maltesers are one of life's true pleasures. Although I've yet to encounter a chocolate snack that isn't improved out of sight by this technique. Despite what some perverts on this thread claim. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
