Who would have ever thought that something so innocent and sweet could have caused so much pain and suffering?
On the Eve of September 30th, 2008, I traveled through the long isles of my local Wal-mart with a few dollars to spare and a sweet tooth that would not ****! I paused my journey at the endless bags of candy. You know, the ones in the orange and black boxes, advertising them for Halloween. Well, let me tell you something, Wal-Mart, I am one sharp tack, my friend. I know you sell that candy year-round... Don't try to fool me. My skin began to itch at the cornucopia of chocolate (it really sucks being allergic to chocolate). All of a sudden, a breath of fresh air! A bag of white chocolate Reese's miniatures gazed back at me romantically. It was as if it were written in the cosmos. Do I believe in love at first sight? I do now...
But little did I know just how heartbreaking love can be.
I purchased the bag and it was time to head home. But, when I finally opened the bag... I was shocked. I found a wrapper with no white chocolate Reese's miniature in it. It was collapsed and scrunched together, you know, like folks do after they eat one... they collapse the wrapper. I can't find a better word. Anyway. How does this happen? How, in a sealed bag, is there a candy-less wrapper? Did the machinery make a mistake back at the factory? Did some asshat factory worker eat one of my precious white chocolate Reese's miniatures? Should I be concerned about my health and/or safety? Why am I making a thread about this?!
Anyway, I'm eating them right now and they couldn't be more delicious.
