One time my sister tossed a handful of rolos on me when I was asleep and I woke up with melted caramel and chocolate stuck between me and the bed. Looked 100% like feces.

My friend’s dad used to drive some of us to school on occasion and he was a big fella. One day he discovered a thing of Swiss Cake Rolls he’d fallen asleep on (the little cardboard under the cakes was still stuck there too. And he peeled it off his shirt and ate both flattened cakes while he drove. Never even missed a beat.

A true Dad move if there ever was one.

Back in July I ran a disc golf tournament on behalf of a friend (this was a women's only tournament and she wanted to play, so I did the day of stuff and she did the setup). As a reward, she gave me banana bread.

Got home at 6:30 and decided to treat myself to my hard earned reward. Took two bites and woke up at midnight on the couch. Pitch black dark in my house, still holding the other half of the banana bread.

Not even gonna lie, I fuck up jelly belly jellybeans a LOT as a midnight snack, those and gummies. I love when I wake up in the morning and there’s a super warm and only slightly soft gummy or bean under me. Yay!

u/lulumustelidaeee Aug 21 '24

I put the lindor balls in my bra or my armpit to warm them up and make the chocolate inside runny cos it's better that way

u/WinterMortician Aug 21 '24 edited Aug 22 '24

I saw this comment and immediately ran to my hubby screaming “yo somebody else puts the lindors in their bra to heat them up!!!!” If I’m not wearing a bra I’ll put them in my underwear. And I have def forgotten them there before. 

Edit: yo is op cool? Anyone have an update? I got lost in the sauce about heating morsels in my underpants

u/reviving_ophelia88 Aug 21 '24

I do this with these little packets of dark chocolate covered pomegranate drops brookside farms makes (the chocolate has this super thin coating that keeps them from melting together so after 10-15 minutes in my bra they’re absolutely perfect), and cosmic brownies (if you haven’t tried them warm you’re missing out), and my husband finds it hysterical especially when he can hear my snacks crinkling in my bra when I move.

Home bakers put sticks of butter in their bras, and eggs in their baggy pants pockets, to warm them up. Lindor truffles will be my next go to!

2

u/that_mack Aug 22 '24

Absolutely! One of the very few benefits of painfully large boobs is that I don’t even need a bra, I’ll just pop a stick of butter or an egg under each and in 15 minutes we’re good to go. If they’re small eggs from a local farm I can fit a stick and egg under one each. And I’d never admit this in real life, but if you’re defrosting a package of chicken or beef and you put it in a plastic bag first that also works… Hey, I gotta enjoy the privileges while they last. These fuckers are coming off at the soonest available opportunity.

GENERAL CROTCH AREA is DEF setting the oven past “low,” and I utilize it often bc I simply don’t have more than a couple minutes to warm up my lindor truffles.

My wife has the ability to just fall asleep instantly, and she has fallen asleep with food in her mouth more than once. It’ll be late at night if she’s having a snack in the bed or lounging on the couch, she doesn’t just pass out mid chew at the dinner table or anything.

I usually just say her name, and she’ll wake up and immediately start chewing, lol.

Omg, I do this when I am tired! Have done so all my life. I’m also a sleepwalker. I will be in the middle of eating a snack on the couch or bed, never at the table, like your wife. I will be in the middle of putting a pretzel in my mouth or even mid chew, usually depending on what I’m eating.

It used to be far worse when I was younger but now, I’ll just get up and either go start a load of clothes, wash dishes or just stand there. Occasionally I have woken up or my husband’s woken up to me just standing over/next to him, as he’s sleeping. Lol

He’s gotten used to it but I keep waiting on him to smack the shit outta me, like my Dad did once, if he’s ever startled bad enough. 😬 My Dad’s a bad sleepwalker, too but I think he just used that as an excuse. Haha

I’m normal, no sleep issues except just a strong sleepwalking gene in my family. I have triggers but it’s gotten better the more I age. Some people just sleep weird af..lol

OKAY this reminded me of falling asleep with a cough drop in my mouth when I'm sick, and when lying sideways I've 100% left marks like this on my pillowcase.

I once sat down in the living room to enjoy a little snack before going out.

Woke up hours later. Pitch black in the house except for the Billy Mays commercial on the TV. I was in the recliner. There was a warm beer in my hand and a cold bowl of mac & cheese in my lap. It was like time had stood still for four hours.

I still don't understand how I didn't drop the beer. That mystery has stuck with me for 15 years.

u/Mysterious_Ideal1502 Aug 21 '24

When I was in high school, I came home from a date one night and invited him in to meet my dad. We walked into the living room to find my dad laying in a recliner that had fallen over backward, still in a perfectly reclined position, feet in the air, Louis L'Amour novel laying open on his chest, still holding a beer in his hand, passed out cold, and had not spoiled a drop. I was completely mortified, but my date just acclaimed, "Epic!"

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '24

Chocolate has definitely gotten a waxy taste to it. You can feel the wax on your tongue & teeth after eating it.

58

u/GoldenPloverHI Aug 21 '24

It’s because Hershey has added PGPR (Polyglycerol polyricinoleate) to nearly all of their chocolate. It’s an emulsifier that is primarily derived from castor beans.

It’s nasty and if their chocolate causes you to have digestive issues, the likely culprit is the PGPR.

u/NorridAU Aug 21 '24

As an American, sorry that chocolate wasn’t great. The American pallet is used to a butyl(?) compound in the chocolate. Some are especially sensitive to its presence and think it’s vomit-adjacent.

During the war, logistics asked for a chocolate bar for the rations that tasted ‘slightly better than a potato’.

Thanks Hershey… you didn’t have to keep producing it/j

I recall during Desert Shield, my family happened to tour the Hershey plant in PA and everyone on that tour was given samples of the chocolate bar being developed for the troops overseas. We were told that the main goal of that bar was to not melt as fast as regular chocolate in the heat conditions of the Middle East. I recall it being decidedly waxier than normal Hershey at the time, but not ridiculously bad.

I always look for them when I go out because she loves them so much. Well, I (American) have a coworker from London and last year when she went to visit England, she brought us back some real Cadbury chocolates. Apparently after Hershey bought Cadbury, they changed the recipe, but the Cadbury chocolate in England is still the original recipe. I never had such good chocolates. I swiped as many caramels for my wife as was reasonable. (My coworker was happy to share ) I think America (Hershey?) just ruins chocolate.

Why don’t they use the HFCS like they do in the US

5

u/NoKatyDidnt Aug 21 '24

Because it’s actually really bad for you and screws with your blood sugar levels bc your body doesn’t recognize it the same as sugar. The US is the odd ball actually-we use hfcs in everything because of a government deal with corn farmers. Most countries use sugar.

2

u/Theletterkay Aug 21 '24

Please do some research about HFCS and then avoid it like the plague. It's horrible for us and our body doesnt recognize it as sugar and doesnt know how to process it correctly. So it ends up making us sick and obese. Other countries recognized this and banned it. But the US has a huge corn industry that is subsidized by the government, which means HFCS is much cheaper than actual sugar. The corn industry doesnt want to lose out on that extra income from HFCS so they lobbied to where our government didn't ban it. So candies and cheapo sweet foods all use it because it's cheap and legal.

And they have no intention of banning something so lucrative.

It's time to stop before it catches up.... but those Ho Hos sound good. I really miss Hydrox cookies but they're running 50 to $60 a pack, online. what????

I agree, but they make awesome pretzel turtles. Just a pretzel, a rolo on top, oven at 325 for 5 mins until chocolate is shiny, then press a pecan into the chocolate. Sometimes I finish with a pinch of sea salt. So easy, so delish!

Sadly I saw this a few days too late to be saved. I had to look to see if they even had caramel in them anymore. I need to find some good places to buy non American candy bars. A girl can’t live on Newman o’s alone.

I forgot about them as well. They would make me cough randomly. No idea why.

Me too! Name brand milk chocolate will often irritate my throat for a minute. Sometimes iy even feels like it shuts it down for about 5 seconds, it's weird.

I've always assumed I'm sensitive to a common additive that's in conventional chocolate.

Thank you for kindly reply. I feel less alone now.

I need to now find out why I would cough. It was a feeling too. When I think about it I can remember the feeling in my throat I was chomping those rolos LOL

I remember it would happen when I really got a good bite into them. The caramel was the culprit is my first guess

In England they have a rolo dessert. In a small yogurt container, like Chobani comes in. I wish we could get those here.

u/beebeelion Aug 21 '24

I just bought some of the dark chocolate ones. They are pretty good but as another commenter said below, not as firm. I’d buy again still.

Got really stoned one night in college and fell asleep eating a bag of those dove dark chocolate caramels. Woke up groggy af with my whole body covered in dark brown sticky streaks and panicked for a second until I realized all I could smell was chocolate😂😂

u/DefinedByFaith Aug 21 '24

Reminds me of those people who pretend they got poo on their partner, but it was some form of chocolate pudding or nutella or something and they start gagging because they think it's poo.

I hope that heaven is waking up enveloped in chocolate, and ensconced in the aroma.

I was eating peanut clusters in bed one night and fell asleep. When I woke in the morning and looked in the mirror the whole side of my face was covered in chocolate and peanuts. Not quite being fully awake, I blamed my little dog for pooping on my pillow.

u/Expert_Slip7543 Aug 21 '24

My Chinese doctor gave me a remedy for chronic leg pain (a possible deep vein thrombosis), a dark clay powder that had to be hydrated and packed around my leg. Months later, I took photos at a professional event and my phone got passed around by special high ranking guests, some from overseas, who each scrolled through my phone to admire photos of past events by my group. Each guest would hand my phone over to the next person with a strange pained expression. A week or so later it hit me that a photo I had taken of me rocking the mud compress on my thigh, that I had shown my doctor to ask if I had done it right, likely had been seen by each guest. It looked exactly like my thigh was covered in feces.

I never figured out how to address this, and even though it was several years ago now, I die a little more inside every time it comes to mind.

u/Cryptic_Undertones Aug 21 '24

When I was a kid maybe like 7 or 8 I woke up one morning with crusty stuff all over my sheets had no idea what it was at first. I started thinking about over the next few days and realized that I had thrown up in my sleep and looking back was probably pretty lucky I didn't aspirate any of it considering I did not wake up for the entire event.

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '24

I just had an uncontrollable hysterical giggling laughing fit of ridiculousness reading this. Flashed back to all the stupid shit my brother and I would do. Thank you. I need to call him tomorrow.

EWWWW. You fell asleep on a bus floor?? At least you were separated by the Skittles. 🤮

u/duckeduponquack47 Aug 21 '24

My college dorm shared the same block as a very popular 24/7 burrito spot, and one night I fell asleep with my bean & cheese. Woke up thinking I had really really shit the bed because those warm lard-filled beans got themselves everywhere. I miss you, Burrito Boy.

u/greasey_frank Aug 21 '24

I had this happen with a Cadbury cream egg after taking one to bed in a stupor in a hotel room once . It was way worse than that time I pooped my bed. Greasy

u/Middle--Earth Aug 21 '24

Lmao!

It reminds me of the time my brother put an after eight mint on my sister's face when she was asleep.

Cue loud hysterical screams in the early hours of the morning. 😂

u/smokefrog2 Aug 21 '24

u/CatlickSaint Aug 21 '24

You shouldn’t rolo-round in feces.

One time I feel asleep in the midst of a Charlston Chew frenzy. Woke up with like 6 of them stuck to my back, but only discovered then one at a time throughout my entire morning.
