Riesen Must Not Be Popular

[Sasquatch]

Wifey got me a pack of Riesen chocolate caramels. I like them.

Every one in the bag looked like this:

Checked the package - they were marked good until Oct 2022... I usually only see oxidized chocolate like this from candy that has sat on shelves for a long time. Are these not a popular candy anymore? I haven't had them in a while. I did eat them, because, well, I'm a fatass and I like chocolate. They tasted okay, but not as good as fresh, non-oxidized chocolate does.

Trumps fault.

Brown chocolate turned white. Worst case of white supremacy I've seen.
I agree, Trump's fault. OMB!

I like them but I can't eat them anymore. Too many crowns in my mouth. :/

The white stuff means they were actually using real chocolate in the production of these.

You’re unwrapping your favorite chocolate bar when all of a sudden, surprise! It has turned…white? Read ahead to find out why your chocolate bar forms that unique, dusty film. (Spoiler alert, it’s still safe to eat!) This white film does not mean the chocolate is moldy or has gone bad. It’s...

It's kinda weird you posted this. I hadn't had Riesens in several years & last month bought 2 packs .... well cause I had a craven for them. Ended up eating both packs in 3 nights. Mine didn't look like that though.... mine looked normal.

Things I no longer eat because of crowns:

Heath
Rollo
Hot Tamales
Riesen
Jolly Ranchers

The list is growing.

Just embrace your inner hillbilly. I own it and the candy is so good.

There's nothing like holding the crown in your hand that contains $1,600 worth of gold when you've just pulled it off your tooth eating a Rollo you bought at Love's headed down 59!

Son your in Texas ever been in the back room of a grocery store? Any idea when Halloween candy arrives in stores? What kind of temperatures you think you get inside a trailer in Texas?

The last year I worked there was 4 stacks of pallets in the meat cooler @ the 4th of July. The back rooms at that store was warm enough for the top stacks weight to start collapsing the pallets containing chocolate!

With thanksgiving on the horizon, but still a ways out all the thanksgiving merchandise should have been put out say Memorial Day. I guarantee Christmas shit is in backrooms across the country!

Had one come off while on a business trip thanks to a hard candy my company had bowls of everywhere. That was real fun.

I disagree.

There’s nothing like biting into a big, juicy cheeseburger with thick-cut bacon, swallowing that bite and realizing your gold crown is no longer there.

And that having to search for it a day or so later.

Fine mesh sifter, a flowing water source, and some good antibacterial soap for later!
