'With these choc'o'lates you are really spoiling us Ambassador...

We had some at work as a Thank you and after sucking all the Chocolate off and spitting the Nuts away we noticed the inside of the packet has some sort of Italian Certificate...

So WTF is this all about?! Do you Register your Rocher? Or is it some sort of 'Puffin 50Metre Rocher Swimming' Certificate?!

"Certificato di garanzia"

Its a warranty.

But because you've eaten them incorrectly I'm afraid its probably void.

You could try Watchdog but I suspect they've bigger fish to fry.

Only my take however. I'm not a FR expert. Too intimidated by their aristocratic lineage.

Cheapest nastiest low grade trash masquerading as a premium product ever. It's like 100 Iceland burgers for 99p being passed off as best fillet.

Just eat Nutella with a spoon. It's the same substance.

It's to send it to Political finance offices as a declaration of receiving ambassadorial gifts.

2 MP's were sacked at the beginning of last year for accepting gifts like this from Ambassadors without declaring them properly.

Apparently the world record for eating Rochers in a minute is 7. You'd think it'd be easy to eat more but it seems not.

I have two boxes here and I don't like them! And usually I'll eat any chocolate.

Serious question - what happened to the mint F-R you used to get?

Serious moan - I went to an Ambassador's party and they didn't have any F-R!!
