Good afternoon.
Well I have done some stupid things in my life this is the worst.
Send a box of Russell Stover chocolates.
Guess what?mailed it to Florida.
The package arrived melted.
Got an email as my friend telling me you do not mail chocolate in the summer time.Not in South Florida.Oh!my.
He said he put the chocolate in the freezer and have it for desserts.
Can get any dumber than this.Stupid is the word.
A lesson learned.

Its the thought that counts Fredo and he has or will eat them in the end by putting them in the freezer.
Have not done that myself but its a really nice thought.

Oops, I learned that lesson a number of years ago.
I sent a care package with some chocolate bars in it to our son while he was at university, and the chocolate melted because it sat outside in the outdoor mailbox for the place he rented on a hot day.
Live and learn and never mail chocolate, right?

Makes sense but really who would have thought about them melting on route to Florida. At least your friend can have sweet frozen chocolates

The candy is sitting in a hot truck or cargo of the plane, not conducive for chocolate.

This had me rolling. Hey, how would we laugh if we did not do dumb stuff. They probably thought it was some kind of prank. I am going to mail chocolate to my brothers in Kansas right now.

Lesson learned, indeed.
They could have implemented a fridge service for edible goods though. Or does it exist already?

@MALUSE Right, I thought it had to exist already, at least for businesses. I wasn't sure about private individuals.

If you order candy thru a candy company online they tell you they either ship it in dry ice or they won't ship in the summer. Anyplace is the south is too hot to mail candy LOL!
