Eed Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 (edited) I have found droplets (of water, I assume) inside my chocolate wrappers. The wrappers hadn't been opened and didn't have holes in them, but they had been stored temporarily in a humid environment by mistake for maybe 30 minutes (they were at room temperature prior). Are the droplets likely to be condensation? Edited April 15, 2022 by Eed added information Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVat Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Chocolate contains water. It will sweat if moved quickly to a warm environment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes sense then. I couldn't understand why still 3 days after the incident, there is liquid in every wrapper I've opened! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNow Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 This just reinforces my long held contention that chocolate is actually a vegetable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't had the willpower to leave the M&Ms in the ground once I plant them, so I can't verify this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVat Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Cacao beans are the seed of a cacao fruit. Which makes them a nut. Since it is part of a tree and contains the template for another tree, and a tree is a plant, one could say loosely that it's a vegetable. Nutritional guilt problem solved! There is the further question of whether or not chocolate rabbits count as meat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For obligate cacaonivores, it's a question of whether they're red or dark meat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
