To open the second layer in the chocolate box before the first is finished

[ChocolateBoxWars]

The first layer has been denuded of all the good ones. Only the nasty ones remain.

Beneath the crackling black paper lies a whole fresh layer including all the nice ones.

But something in me tells me that it’s wrong to open the second layer when the first isn’t empty (even if some of the nasty ones would fit neatly into the slots of their more delicious cousins and disguise the crime).

WIBU?

Definitely unreasonable. Sorry.

It’s fine
Just eat what you want, when you want.
Anyone who says otherwise is a nob

YANBU

You would be aquitted in a court of law - nay, the case would be dismissed OP.
Crack on!

It depends if it's for you any you only

Nothing beats the disappointment of ripping off the second layer to find the best ones have already been eaten

It’s for me and DH

You can't do that!

i can never open the second layer until the first is completely finished either. luckily i have kids who’ll eat anything so they finish off the chocolates i don’t like and i get to move on to the next layer

It’s for me and DH

What does he think? If he's there and agrees, that's fine. If not, you have to share out the shit ones until they're all gone and you can go in for round two

I do it if i don't like the ones left on the top layer and want something nicer from the bottom layer :)

Knickers to that. Take the ones you want. Layers be damned.

Totally reasonable. You don't have to eat the shit ones just to get to the good ones underneath, you're not a dustbin.

It wouldn't occur to me not to!

DP does this and it gives me the .

He doesn't like nutty chocolates, and eats about 3x as much chocolate as I do. By the time I've finished off the nutty ones in the top layer, all that's left in the bottom layer is more nutty ones.

I never the get the lovely caramel ones, fudge, the cherry one in Black Magic which is lush, or any of the creamy ones.

Mind you, since they've increased the amount of palm oil in chocolate to the point where it hardly tastes of chocolate at all, we're both a bit off it. I have to buy chocolate from Aldi and Lidl or pay through the nose for posh chocolate. The Germans seem to be far too sensible to adulterate their chocolate in this way,

If you don't eat the nice ones, someone else will. Get in there first.

start on the second layer and put the leftovers from the first layer into the sections of the 2nd layer...that was very long winded but you get the gist

Absolutely verboten, what on earth is wrong with you. You probably buy a new packet of selection box mini cereals even if you haven’t eaten the boring Special K ones yet.

I only eat the nice ones and bin the ones I don’t like... tuck in

It's a bit cuntish to be honest. Unless you've got agreement of all parties involved of course. Safer to stick to a box of Celebrations or similar, at least that way there are no layers and it's an obvious free for all from the start.

Do it! Replace the good bottom layer chocs with the shit top layer chocs. If dh questions it, tut loudly and suggest they fucked up in the factory.

My favourites:
Hazelnut
Caramel
Fudge
Turkish delight
Coffee cream

YANBU, otherwise there'd be a permanent standoff situation and you'd go to your grave having not enjoyed a hazelnut praline for the sake of a fucking orange cream.

'Knickers to that' really made me .

This makes me glad to live alone! I can do eat the rubbish ones first and save the best for last without someone else nabbing them first

Move the crap ones to the second layer
And demolish the tasty ones!

Destroy the inlay card as it’s evidence
(I’ve done this before)

Nope. The general rule for chocolates in this house is that I eat all my favourites - even if it means going down to the next layer - and then my partner gets the rest.

And the poor guy accepts the castoffs with great thanks!! :')

I have heard about monsters like you. But I never thought I would actually... meet one.
