MSE Forum Poll: Do you prefer to eat chocolate that has or has not been in the fridge?
For those of you who are chocolate lovers, this week's poll is seeking your votes on how you like your confectionary treat... or more specifically, what temperature?

You're the only customer in the supermarket and have five small-to-medium size items in your basket.
