AIBU?

To eat the chocolate of my maltesers first?

Okay so for years I have eaten the chocolate off maltesers first, put them back in the bag box then eat all the biscuits last as I love the way they melt in the mouth.

I've just done this in front of my friend who is now pulling some very odd faces at me and insists I'm committing some chcoolatey cardinal sin

Aibu??

That is the only way to eat maltesers!

YANBU.

YABU for making me crave maltesers!

Biting the chocolate off them, yes. Putting them back in the bag, definitely no.

Aren't they all covered in spit, gently going soggy while you eat the rest? It sounds gross, and I wouldn't do it, but I think the real mistake you've made is doing it in front of someone - it sounds pretty antisocial...

No the biscuit is dry, it wouldn't be the same if they were going soggy :)

I never thought about it being antisocial, I probably wouldn't do it out the street or anything but its in my house and this is my best friend who has far worse habits than this!

Good - I thought for a moment that you needed reporting to the authorities. I'm sure a gentle reminder of her bad habits will kick her into touch - I used to have a friend who flossed her teeth with her hair, and once she had a go at me for 'using too much lip balm'. It nearly came to blows, but we decided to just ignore the whole thing and carry on as before in the end...Grin

I really like those very occasional random mutant Maltesers that are chewy & extra malty - haven't had one for years - do they still happen?

Ewwww IMO YABU but to be honest I have no restraint and once that bad boy is in my mouth, its gone!

I bite the chocolate off, melt it in my mouth then I pop the malty bit in, I couldn't put it bag in the bag though.

If you put Maltesers in the fridge, the middle bit vanishes and leaves hollow chocolate spheres that you can use to convince the children you did magic with It takes a day or two afaik, I've not actually timed it as such Grin but it happens...

I only eat maltesers like this! Wouldn't put them back in the bag if I was sharing bag though

Sharing a bag? What an odd idea. I couldn't do that they're gone too quick!

I always nibble the chocolate off first before eating the malty bit but I would never put them back in the bag for later. That is gross.

Yanbu! That's how I do it Grin

I freeze them first, then out them in a sandwich bag, bash them with a rolling pin and tip the chocolatey malty rubble into my greedy gob.
