Question for you, T33gz: why is it acceptable for you to have to eat the chocolate that was given to you, certainly by people who know you are watching what you eat, and yet you won't take this to your coworkers at work? The answer is that it is not ok. You can tell your partner you really appreciate the sentiment but just don't indulge anymore. You can thriw the chocolate away. You can pass it on to a coworker (or several coworkers!) with children. You can even donate them to a food bank. Please don't accept 'the gift of something' as a reason or obligation to eat it. At the end of the day, a gift should be received graciously, and that is all. A gift is never meant to induce guilt, and if it does that's another motive (sabotage?) masquerading as a gift. |

Throw it in the trash. Why is that so hard for you? |

how much did you get? Personally I enjoyed the eggs I got but I didn't get tons and only one milk choc egg since everyone who knows me knows I don't want milk chocolate. Giving it away and/or sharing with people (the people who gave it to you... just eat it around them and offer it a lot)... very easy way to get rid of it :P haha. Most importantly, in the long run it isn't going to hurt and its ok to indulge in something like that once in a while as long as you are not overly sensitive to any of the ingredients (though ofc anything with wheat in I wouldn't bother indulging in at all and I'm not celiac). |

Could you bring it to your workplace and share it with co-workers? If you have an office desk, you could place it out and people could just grab some of it when they stop by. Or if you have a break room, you could bring it there. |
