Comments and predictions

I predict plinth puking!

But sems awfully easy - I am sure I could beat that easily! ;)

Only seven?! Is there some kind of trick to this that I'm not spotting?

"Aurorablue, with this experiment you are really spoiling us..." :)

I'm afraid you'd get more than plinth puking if I did this – you'd get plinth anaphylactic shock...

That's a substantial swelling from a tiny droplet of Hazelnut essence, top right of photo. Breaking this record could kill me – which I suppose might get the media attention PlinthiPaul.co.uk has been yearning for, but possibly not in the way intended.

If anyone knows of any non-nut-based chocolate-eating world records, though, I am definitely well up for trying to beat them :D

Roses? Celebrations? Quality Street?

Although in the interests of fairness, it would probably have to be a box containing only a single variety of chocolate.

Each chocolate would have to be consumed sequentially - i.e. stuffing multiple chocs into the mouth at the same time would be disallowed.

But I personally prefer the other ideas I've voted and commented on...
