Just found a shrivelled liquorish allsort in the bottom of my untidy bedside drawer. Do I eat it or throw it?

I see your liquorice allsort and I raise you a Flyte Bar that went out of date in 2009.

Found a few weeks ago in the back of a cupboard (even more embarrassing is the fact we moved house 7 months after it went out of date, so we brought an out of date chocolate bar with us).

It used to be my absolute favourite. Can’t bring myself to throw it away. But if I open it and eat it I just know it will be disappointment and ruin my memory of how good they actually tasted.

Sigh. Photos attached for proof!

Has that got mold growing on the wrapper?

That’s not very hygienic! All those people will sometimes touch their mouths when eating them 😟

Persackly!!!

Oh I’ve looked at the photo now - realised I took it before I gave it a wipe.

Nostalgia is stopping me lol. It’s probably the very last Flyte bar in the entire world…
