Just in case you missed the other twenty people that mention it, the expiry date is August 2007.

why bother to repeat if for the 21st time then?

Just ordered mine and if you apply the following code FF10 you will get a further 80 pence knocked off.

I guess this offer is for people who don't believe that food instantly turns poisonous 1 second after it passes its expiry date.

These are tooo cheap - are they out of date or something.

It's not that long ago that there were no such things as "best before" & "eat by".

Forty years ago, when I was a kid, my parents had a sweet shop. For Christmas the chocolate companies used to produce large gift boxes of chocolates, usually with pictures on the front (hense the description of a painting as being "chocolate boxy"). There was little demand for these boxes of chocolate the rest of the year and so any left after Christmas were put into storage until next Christmas, when they were put back on the shelf for sale.

My parents don't recall any problems with these chocolates.

Unless chocolates are made differently now, so that they degrade faster, I think I'd risk these Roses at this price.
