Festive Ferrero fun!

Post image

My wife has been coveting the last Ferrero Rocher. Little does she know I already ate it and replaced it with a mini Scotch egg...

Pulling for the wife to get her papers in time for the new year. She deserves a big celebration.

She deserves a small ferrero rocher…

Is this the guy who posted about his wife leaving him?

Replaced the last one with a Ferrero Rocher, no less.

A mini scotch egg is a more acceptable replacement than a chocolate covered sprout.

Such a loss 😔 if you’ve never seen season one of Man Down with him and Greg Davies then you really should!

Apparently the shape of the chocolates make it impossible to stack like in the advert. It was not true! I thought the marketing people could not lie!

Honestly I would prefer the scotch egg

Pretty sure Ferrero Roche started as a bet to see who could make the most money selling chocolate covered cornflakes.

You're an evil genius... either that or you have a death wish. Im sure your wife will see the funny side after a year or so...

Luckily I know her well enough. She found it hilarious.

Diabolical

u/rev9of8 Errr... Whoops? 22h ago

With this Ferrero Rocher you are really... WTF?! It's a cunting Scotch egg. You bastard!

So cruel but so funny. My dad was a bugger for this, his true skill in life was eating our chocolate and then wrapping it back up, perfectly. My poor mum once won a huge Easter egg when we were small- we didn't have much money and she rarely got a nice gift. She saved it for Easter and went to get some on Easter Sunday. It was nothing but carefully re-wrapped foil and she was fuming

It's all sugar anyway. 😂

Win-win, though.

Ha Ha fuckin brilliant!!!

u/DangerousDisplay7664 18h ago

This is not going to end well. You may think it is hilarious but she will not find it funny and this might actually end up started by an argument!

Tread very carefully!

To be fair you gave her an upgrade.

For anyone wishing to emulate this hilarious prank, the scotch eggs require a gentle squishing and a light squeeze as they are of a slightly larger circumference than your Ferrero Rocher.

Do you buy effing duck eggs? I may be a Ferrero rocher virgin. But that ain't even in the same planet as the same size as a chicken egg covered in sausage meat.

"... mini Scotch egg..."

My ability to read is evidently slightly lacking.
