An exercise in (non-)human psychology

[baxil]

Two coworkers of mine -- who I will leave nameless to protect the innocent -- cannot settle a raging debate, and they have turned to me for an impartial third-party opinion. In turn, I turn to you, people of the Internets. Can you take a few seconds and help me put this to rest for them?

I also find it vaguely amusing that your answer would probably be "no to all".

unlikely to take one unless directly offered by the box owner.

Glee! I get to skew the expected results! :D I reject all chocolates, until the last questions where I must choose between an 'opened' or 'closed' chocolate; then I choose opened.

a) The 'untouched' chocolates may well have been tampered with, as easily as the 'untouched'; but that's not really a concern. I'm a trusting sort. (ha!) And I do like chocolate. More of a driving factor in my behaviour is;
b) I'm diabetic. A dark chocolate truffle center, or a nut cluster, will be better for me than, say, a mouthful of liquid caramel. (Not much better, but you know, it all counts...)

I go for the chocolate in every scenario, because chocolate is yummy. (Although I was slightly suspicious of the SAFE TO EAT, YUM YUM sign, because I've been reading a lot of Terry Pratchett and as a result am rather cynical regarding the trustworthiness of cheerful signs like that.)

I took the pristine chocolate on the last one because my mind stubbornly maintains that if a chocolate is smashed-up, there's less of it - chocolate dust all over the place and so on - and therefore I'm getting more value for the money I'm not paying for the pristine one. I realize this is utterly nonsensical, but there you go.

Edit: I can't spell utterly.

I can't eat chocolate due to allergy, so no choc munchies for me.
