AIBU to think chocolate should NOT be kept in the fucking fridge?

[ChocolateShouldNotBeInTheFuckingFridge]

DH believes chocolate (including biscuits e.g. digestives) should be kept in the fridge because “it tastes nicer, keeps its shape and lasts longer”.

I believe chocolate should not be kept in the fridge because it’s fucking wrong, basically. Am I being unreasonable?

(There is also another AIBU worthy sub question, which is that if you can say you can fit a chocolate digestive in your mouth, YABU to then break it into pieces with bites as you put it in, so that it fits? This is clearly cheating and DH should be told he is YABU just for this alone? If I lose this fridge thread, I’ll start that one )

This 👆 - I eat dark chocolate and love it cold in Summer.

[Milk chocolate that is ‘melty’ - no thanks!
White chocolate - that’s just an abomination and no amount of chilling will improve it!]

Thank you for all replies (even though the majority are wrong )

Chocolate bars in freezer?! This actually is interesting. Could I freeze a Bounty? I’m going out on a limb @ThousandYardStareand think you hate them too as you’ve listed my favourites upthread

Love a cold chocolate biscuit. And the idea of cold chocolate is so you can make it warm and gooey in your gob 😁

Yeah - I loathe it. I hate it and can't untaste it now. I have to buy very expensive chocolate to enjoy it at all now. It's sad because I used to be a right chocoholic and took great pleasure in a bar of anything.

Chocolate; always, always from the fridge. I am currently in an hotel room which is well air conditioned, but I made the error of eating one of the wee choccy treats from the hospitality tray without refrigerating it first. Rookie error. The other one is on ice, to be devoured later.

Please explain the virtues of warm chocolate 😀

I keep it in the fridge. I like it hard.

I kept all chocolate in fridge when it’s been really hot as I found it was all melting but otherwise in cupboard!

In summer you have to or it melts?
I hate really cold chocolate though. Like in ice-cream. A lump of frozen chocolate just tastes like plastic!

Chocolate from the fridge is great! Chocolate (and all other) digestives are terrible, so nothing could change them.

Dp did put chocolate biscuits in the fridge last week at work but in his defence it was that or his bag in a hot car. He doesn't do it in our house.

You can freeze a Bounty but it will still be shit IME

WRONG!! I fucking LOVE a Bounty! Red one tho, not blue. Although, I am a mahoosive pig, I'll eat a blue one, who am I kidding. But liquorice, sultana scones and bubblegum ice cream banning is a hill I'll die on

Okay in a frantic attempt to swing the votes my way, DH thinks white chocolate is rank. Dark chocolate is only acceptable if it’s Fry’s mint or orange. Matchmakers and After Eights are acceptable.

I really should LTB…

Is it that the toffee bit becomes too hard?

The only place chocolate should be kept is in the freezer!

You could drip feed that he's a serial killer and you won't win. Sorry OP, no chance.

yep, makes it impossible to eat until its warmed up, so i leave it in the cupboard.

Chocolate digestives in the fridge are LOVELY👌🏻 As is all chocolate.

White chocolate is rank, he's right there.
Dark chocolate is great , in small doses.
Milk chocolate sucks apart from in the afore mentioned reeses bars, but I don't like peanut butter. Go figure.

I keep it in the freezer because when it's cold it's harder to eat the whole bar. I keep Maltesers in the freezer especially. Otherwise I'd pig the lot.

I prefer chocolate out of the fridge. Sorry OP.

Well you’re just unreasonable on every level. I pity your joyless life without those examples.

Oh now you’ve raised another sub-topic… After Eight mints - do you leave the packets in the box?

A. Of course, because you get that little dopamine hit of achievement when you think they’ve run out and you triumphantly find one lurking in the middle of the empty envelopes… as with most things in life, the harder you work for something the more you appreciate it.

B. No, it throw them away straight away because I am boring and I don’t like fun.

After eights from the freezer would be great.

@MrsTigerface- room temperature! It tastes better and isn’t too hard to bite.

There are so many replies (and excellent ideas) I can’t keep up
