To bin these advent calendars as the chocolate isn't foil sealed

[DyslexicScientist]

They were a gift from ex mil but if they are not foil wrapped the chocolate is going to be nasty tasting, probably off and not that healthy right?

Ah this brings back fond memories of the year all my chocolates fell down in my advent calendar, so I put them in a sandwich bag in the fridge, and found the one with the right shape each day. My mum couldn't understand why I didn't just take any chocolate each day, I had to take the right one!!

love it LittleMiss

You clearly want to throw them away.

If you want to persuade yourself it's for any other reason then being horrible to your ex-MIL you're going to have to try harder. If you can imagine telling her and your DC you threw away a perfectly good gift because the cocoa content wasn't high enough for you, and still hold your head up high, then good luck to you OP.

If the chocolate had no wrapping of any kind, are they just magically floating in the air in s suggestion of an advent calander shape?

Tres avant garde Viola

I would buy that kind of chocolate Advent Calendar, even if the chocolate was really cheap.

Passes a grip!
My dd is a food scientist - MSc - food hygiene is her job - she eats the chocolate from cheap Advent calendars I get as a joke every year.

hilarious thread. Yes if you wanted to bump someone off I don't think buying them a non foil advent calendar would be your best strategy
not sure what India has got to do with it

Cheap chocolate is the best!! You can eat more of it. Too rich and its sickly. Like those awful Belgium seashells

Those seashells are your idea of expensive chocolate??!!??

Dear God! Of all the things to worry about in the world, un-foiled advent chocs don't even come near.

The choc will be fine. I doubt the kids will care if it's cheap, milky stuff. It's just a bit of FUN everyday of advent.

Let them eat chocolate!

Well they've had the first one now. Might have to keep poking then every hour to make sure they are alive, joke
