With Christmas just around the corner, it's now socially acceptable to start adding Baileys and mince pies into your shopping trolley. And of course, the season isn't complete with a tub of sweets. In the name of festive science, one person has gone viral for counting the exact number of chocolates that came in their Celebrations box.
The curious shopper headed over to Reddit Ireland to reveal their findings, saying: “Decided to count how many of each chocolate is in my Celebrations box.” The poster said they picked up the sweet deal from their local Eurospar €3.95. The results showed eight Milky Way, nine Bounty, 10 Mars, nine Twix, 10 Snickers, seven Galaxy, eight Carmel Galaxy and 10 Maltesers.
