Just ate a one-and-a-half year old candy bar.

And it was good.

 

aah so you're just like every other candy bar i've ever eaten.

thtas my favorite poem by richard brautigan... i might have quoted it wrong

 

have fun with your head over the toilet tonight!

 

That's nothing. I had half a kilo of 'bastourma' last night. That's slices of very smelly spicy camel salami and gave some to my dog, followed by 'fasolada' a heavy bean stew and washed it down with a liter of Coke. We've stunk out the whole village. They've called the gas company. They think they have a leak.

 

My grandfather doesn't eat anything unless there is mold on it. He calls it penicillan. In miraculous health. You tell me.

 

Loaded with so many preservatives, I'm sure it was fine.

 

And the question is "WHY DID YOU EAT IT IN THE FRST PLACE?"

 

ive eaten loads of dodgy food before (dog biscuits, stale bread etc) and never been ill. For a bet my friend ate a live frog when we were fishing for £3.50.

 

Just had a cough drop myself - only trying to hold up my end of the conversation

 

is there any real food substance in candy bars to go bad? even without the preservatives? seriously, the only reason they have a "shelf life" is that they may get a little hard, not at peak chewy level or some junk.

 

I once bought a candy bar in Athens that had a small maggot in it. I don't think that it was supposed to be there.

 

Some get weird crusty mold stuff. But this one was fine, and it was just sitting there looking at me. Then it called me an asshole, so I ate it.

 

ya as long as it didn't have white spots on it and wasn't all greasy, it should have been fine. God knows those things are loaded with enough preservatives to begin with.

 

What kind of candybar?

 

It was a bar of chocolate imported from Switzerland. And by the look of it, it was imported in 1821.

 

Zero. White chocolate on the outside, and dark on the inside. Not bad.

 

just a little protein, that's all...

 

Yeah, it was probably the only natural ingredient in it.
