Room 101
Room 101
I wouldn’t say I’m a negative person, but I found three things to banish from this world surprisingly easy. Room 101 is designed to house the things that you hate but perhaps others love. I could have put a long list of things in it such as marmite and the many mouthfuls I have later regretted making with this substance involved. But nothing gets me more annoyed than the following three things, and by the end I hope you can agree with me.
Boxes of Chocolates
These sugar-filled boxes are deceptive, there are advertised as being a marvellous collection of all the best chocolates, but this is a false-facade. Collections like ‘Quality Street’ mix some good and some bad, so that you pay a fortune and only enjoy eating half of them. The rest you are forced to eat because it would make the price you previously paid unjust. Take the coconut-conundrum. Why companies feel the need to ruin a perfectly good pieces of chocolate with coconut remains a super mystery! It seems that they are box fillers, there simply to make up the numbers. They always seems to catch you out whilst browsing through a range of assorted chocolates, and once in your mouth you are left with no other option but to swallow it whole. Even after having eaten it, you are left with a lingering taste which is only quenchable by another wrapped-mystery. The outside and the coating of all the range seem delicious and similar, yet the evil interior of the coconut-filled dairy-droplet only comes out after you have placed your trust in it. Even the more-popular brands such as Galaxy, never live up to the expectation of a full chocolate bar, because the taste of plastic and metal foil, which they have been in for years has infected them. Despite my objections to these mini-chocolate collections, the more-popular brands disappear in a heart-beat and you are left to scuffle over the not-so-good options. The names which they accompany, such as Celebrations, claim that these chocolate mix-ups are viable
