Easter egg

Right, confession time.
Last easter my missus was reading some sunday supplement or another and and they reviewed various easter eggs. The daddy was one that Godiva were doing - almost an inch of milk chocolate with a dark chocolate outer shell and crammed full of chocs - so I went and got her one. 60-odd sheets it cost me. Yep, that's right, 60-odd sheets for a bleedin easter egg.
She ate half of it and the chocs inside over the following few weeks but the remaining half has been sitting in the fridge for a year now. I keep going on at her about it but the answers I was getting were unstaisfactory to say the least.
Anyway, I've come in tonight, gone to get a beer, seen this bloody thing still sitting there and have just scoffed the bleedin thing.
I don't feel the slightest bit bad about it, but the quesion is : should I be?

No way!
But still expect a right old telling off!
My mum used to do the same when I used to live at home, she'd leave a chocolate bar (just a Dairy Milk for example) in the fridge for months on end. I'd see it starring at me every time I opened the fridge and in the end I'd give in and munch it. Within litterally half an hour that'd be it, she'd hit the roof! By the by I still stand by I did the right thing every time, chocolate is for eating and not for watching!0 -
It's still edible after a year?0

He then sat down to watch a nice musical !
What is it with women and chocolate ? How do they have the restraint to make a bar last a fortnight by only eating one or two squares a day ?
They're tough minded, i'll give them that0 -

Don't be silly - I had the beer too, and a couple more as I was munching my way through it.
I haven't said anything to her about it - am gonna see if she notices.0 -

I was like that too until I was anaemic; was told dark chocolate is actually high in iron - couldnt get enough of the stuff after then!0 -
tell her it was past the sell by date so you had to throw it out - expensive chocolate just doesn't keep.....

having thought about this all day, i still can't believe you paid sixty notes for an Easter Egg !!
Either the wealth divide between Sidcup and New Eltham is greater than i thought, or you was on a severe guilt trip at the time.....0 -

Looking back mate - neither can I. (I think it was actually 64 or 65!)0 -
and I thought I was pushing the boat out paying £19:00 for one from Hotel Chocolate ! (I put this down to a guilt trip for skipping valentines. Well after 23 years it gets a bit lame innit?)0
