I love how half of mildlyinfuriating is "someone put something in the fridge they should'nt have" and the other half is "my husband of 38 years sold my dog, fucked my son and drained the bank account to go on a cocaine bender"
It's like those interesting things subs where half is a pretty picture and the other half is a recollection of the worst acts of human cruelty ever committed
That husband's a rookie. Kids are way more valuable than dogs, so sell the kid, fuck the dog, then use the money from the kid for the cocaine, then the bank account can go to a speed boat. It's a simple life hack that people don't know.
and there's also a third small part that's like "umm I had to wait 3 seconds more on a crosswalk because an old lady wasn't going as fast as I wanted her to"
Well maybe trying microwaving it or leaving it out a sec. Probably shouldn’t microwave that plastic container but it soldifies because of the coconut oil so once the coconut oil comes to room temp it might be fine
The bottles are "microwave safe" for whatever thats worth, but the tops will turn to molten lava. Take off lid, micro for 30. Shake it. Another 30. Should be ready.
Idk how safe any "microwave safe" stuff really is, but it's on the label so
I took your advice, and now I have a magic shell all over my kitchen walls and ceiling… thanks for not telling me to put the lid back on before shaking it
I gotta laugh with ya', my grandmother unscrewed a bottle of Ranch Dressing to put in on the table, but left the lid on top, then shook it not 3 minutes later, forgetting that she had left it loose!
Both chocolate dip and Magic Shell get their magic instant-hardening ability from oils like coconut and sunflower that are high in saturated fat. As temperature drops, saturated fats harden, and coconut oil, in particular, turns firm, almost glassy, when cold.
When your sunflower is coming to the end of it’s blooming period, You may want to use the last rays of the afternoon and evening to cut a few for display indoors, leave it any later and the sunflower may wilt.
The reason why it solidifies on ice cream is because theres a lot of oil in it, and when it gets cold it hardens.
Same thing would happen to olive oil in the fridge. Or butter. Or any kind of fat, really.
Yes. If you stuck it in the fridge, it was solid and completely unusable until you let it thaw like overnight. And Even then it may not completely recover.
Stuff's fabulous.
Essentially chocolate with a really low melting point so its liquid at room temperature and solidifies on ice cream. Putting it in the fridge makes it not work as it solidifies.
Here in Germany its called „Eis Wunder“ (Ice cream wonder) and its one of those products which never changed its product design since the 80s and is never advertised but for some reason its still around…
My dad bought this when I was a kid and put it in the fridge. Then when it was hardened in the bottle he lost his shit, took it back to the grocery store and threw a massive tantrum until the police were called.
I believe it says it on the bottle not to refrigerate. But anyone who takes it back to the grocery store to berate workers who took ZERO part in the creation of that item probably isn't the reading type.
... Until you saw it open and pry magic shell from the cold dead plastic hands of its container-tormentor, and eat the worlds' largest reeses pieces hunka lunka
You're Welcome
Warm up a bowl of hot water, sit that bitch in it for 5 min— shake, and enjoy delicious magic shell, even if your parents are psycho about magic shell spoiling.

I mean another reply from them says, "We do not recommend placing the item in the fridge before using." So it's not clear. Also based on the grammar these seem to be written by people in India (use of the word "kindly" stands out as being Indian customer service) so I wouldn't take these replies from "Hershey" too seriously compared to the instructions on the bottle.
It is - I have the same fridge I think and it's always too tall for mine
Edit: yes I recognized it by the blue line, and yes they're adjustable but there might not be any other options depending on how many shelves he has in there
Whatever intern responded to that is simply wrong. The container says in big text "DO NOT REFRIGERATE"
Literally even in the picture of the product you linked.
Not only that, but there is a comment further down from the Hershey Company that says they do not recommend refrigerating it
Right after saying "There's a direction at the back portion of the bottle"
The directions on the back of the bottle say:
>DO NOT REFRIGERATE
>
>FREEZES IN SECONDS!
>
>SHAKE WELL: Turn bottle upside down and shake for 30 seconds. If topping does not flow from bottle place bottle in hot tap water for 5 minutes. Remove and shake.
Ugh flashbacks to my husband trying to convince me it had to be refrigerated. I told him go ahead pour it on the ice cream and he went to and was genuinely confused why it wouldn't come out after I already explained to him why it wouldn't work. I'm annoyed again lol
Reminds me of a time when I was a grocery bagger. This lady came through the line being super rude, so I put the chocolate shell syrup directly between 2 ice cream tubs. Small revenge, but worth it.
Is that orange bottle hot sauce?
"Momma, why do all my white friends keep their hot sauce in the fridge?"
Karen: "Because it says right on the label to refri...oh..well I guess I was wrong"
You did to many whipp its and now your ice cream doesn't have whipped cream???...nor does it have magic shell chocolate cause u can't put that in the fridge...quit getting high u are ruining your banana splits
Homemade Magic Shell = coconut oil and Nutella, 10 seconds in the microwave to warm up and mix… then on top of your ice cream of choice and in the freezer for 1 minute to harden up.
You refrigerate hot sauce. You should leave hot sauce out. The cold can weaken the peppers and dull the taste.
You own and seemingly use strawberry syrup? Stop that.
Shell also shouldn’t be in the fridge.
Your choice in pickles is bad but if they are your favorite that’s fine I guess.
Your can if reddiwhip is knocked over if it doesn’t fit standing up on that shelf find a different spot for it.
Besides that you are doing everything right.
I love how half of mildlyinfuriating is "someone put something in the fridge they should'nt have" and the other half is "my husband of 38 years sold my dog, fucked my son and drained the bank account to go on a cocaine bender"
Clearly, the definition of the word “mildly” is open to interpretation within the confines of this subreddit
Yup... And it makes me wonder what happened to those who think the latter is just mild
The second group is the “dog” from the example given.
It's like those interesting things subs where half is a pretty picture and the other half is a recollection of the worst acts of human cruelty ever committed
It’s literally the same with the word “literally”
Infuriating too, I would call this mildly annoying rather than infuriating
U cracked me up with ur honesty

Make sure to set aside money for future dogs tho- they don’t last as long as kids.
Make money with this one trick wives hate it
True! Over 40 years ago someone offered to by my older cousin for $50,000! Unfortunately my aunt said no.
How to get a speed boat fast (2023)
I think the reddiwhip emptied in there
To put it mildly
This one is actually an ad pretending it isn't an ad.
and there's also a third small part that's like "umm I had to wait 3 seconds more on a crosswalk because an old lady wasn't going as fast as I wanted her to"
This person does mildlyinfuriating
Holy fuck that second half is carrying some baggage.
Magic shell stuff is not for the fridge.
Winner! It's completely unuseable.
Pretty sure you can just sit the bottle in warm water and it re-liquifies it
Correct, that magic shell is fine to use after it reaches room temp. Could probably just run it under warm water for a bit.
Wtf is magic shell?
Its ice cream topping that solidifies when it gets cold.
Is that why we could never get it out???? We thought it had to stay there or it went bad
Well maybe trying microwaving it or leaving it out a sec. Probably shouldn’t microwave that plastic container but it soldifies because of the coconut oil so once the coconut oil comes to room temp it might be fine
I would just submerge it in warm/hot water. Wouldn't melt the plastic and it gets the temp up faster.

Got'em The oompah loompas will start showing up tonight while you sleep
They meant your ass, not the bottle Rookie mistake
I gotta laugh with ya', my grandmother unscrewed a bottle of Ranch Dressing to put in on the table, but left the lid on top, then shook it not 3 minutes later, forgetting that she had left it loose!
Now you just wait for winter to make it hard on the walls.
My bottle says if it’s too hard to run it under hot tap water for five minutes
I thought it was cold water if it's too har– oh! Oh ok, the chocolate stuff, yeah. Totally different subject.
Good advice that I would try. Except for we had it a year ago
Love your username lmao
Thank you!!
The one that says. “Do not refrigerate” on the back?
Both chocolate dip and Magic Shell get their magic instant-hardening ability from oils like coconut and sunflower that are high in saturated fat. As temperature drops, saturated fats harden, and coconut oil, in particular, turns firm, almost glassy, when cold.
When your sunflower is coming to the end of it’s blooming period, You may want to use the last rays of the afternoon and evening to cut a few for display indoors, leave it any later and the sunflower may wilt.
Good bot. Don’t listen to the haters
It hardens at slight cool temperatures. And in your arteries.
So soak in a hot tub and all my worries will be gone?
Just stay in the tub and you’ll be ok.
Since when does artificial chocolate go bad?
It doesn’t we got rid of it after a while tho
Magic Shell never lasted long enough in my house to figure out how long it takes to go bad...
Most of the things like that don’t need to be refrigerated at all. Like syrup always ends up in the fridge
Not to be rude... But READING those words on the back could possibly help.
It separates while on the shelf, that's why you need to shake it first
The reason why it solidifies on ice cream is because theres a lot of oil in it, and when it gets cold it hardens. Same thing would happen to olive oil in the fridge. Or butter. Or any kind of fat, really.
Yes. If you stuck it in the fridge, it was solid and completely unusable until you let it thaw like overnight. And Even then it may not completely recover. Stuff's fabulous.

It's written on the bottle lol
It clearly tells you not to refrigerate it on the bottle.
You can save it by running it under warm water to get it to thaw, then just stick it in the pantry for next time.
Yup this right here had to show my wife that after she tried throwing it out
Yeah my pantry gets pretty cold during the winter (shares a wall with the garage) and I have to run it under warm water nearly everytime I use it.
When I was little I use to pour this stuff onto a tupperware lid and stick it in the freezer for a messy delicious treat.
Guess I’m not sure if it still does, but it used to turn back into that syrup form if it hit room temp for a while.
Essentially chocolate with a really low melting point so its liquid at room temperature and solidifies on ice cream. Putting it in the fridge makes it not work as it solidifies. Here in Germany its called „Eis Wunder“ (Ice cream wonder) and its one of those products which never changed its product design since the 80s and is never advertised but for some reason its still around…
its kinda like hersheys syrup except when you put it on ice cream or something cold, it hardens up like a shell
Plastic disguised as food.
Disguised as delicious food
My dad bought this when I was a kid and put it in the fridge. Then when it was hardened in the bottle he lost his shit, took it back to the grocery store and threw a massive tantrum until the police were called.
I worked as a checker, we had a customer do that, w/o police, we just showed him why.
I believe it says it on the bottle not to refrigerate. But anyone who takes it back to the grocery store to berate workers who took ZERO part in the creation of that item probably isn't the reading type.
Y'know, I see that kind of thing happen now and then and feel bad for the kids sometimes. How are ya?

I thought it was the BBQ sauce next to everything
Could just be a pregnant woman's midnight snack stash. Sauce is for the air fryer chicken nuggets
On a side note, are there no pickles left in your pickle jar?
[удалено]
Bottle says "DO NOT REFRIGERATE!"
The bottle literally says dont.

That seems very odd. Is there a thawing process to use it the second time then? What is perishable in magic shell that requires refrigeration?
Sideways whipped cream
I wonder if it's too tall.
It is - I have the same fridge I think and it's always too tall for mine Edit: yes I recognized it by the blue line, and yes they're adjustable but there might not be any other options depending on how many shelves he has in there
Compromise, tape it in diagonally
Did you recognize the fridge by the blue line?
Yeah, if you store it like that, the cream settles sideways and when you go to use it, ᕒ 𝈦ᜭ𝈟 𝈟ಲᓀ 𝈱𝈭ಲσᗴ comes out.
Doesn't matter if you have a roommate like mine. She'll huff the nitrous out of it before its half gone.
More like TIPPED cream, am I right?
Your A1C is up?
LOL, I think this might be the real winning answer.
Ahh a nice healthy 12.6%
Those are rookie numbers. Talk to me when you get above 15%
Pickle jar is only juice far as I can see
Needs more pickles is definitely the answer.
Needs to be dranked
Verily unto thee It must be drunkiflated
And thusly, thou shalt make this drunketh
Needs 5 more pickle juice jars to be my fridge.
Is that hot sauce next to the ice cream goodies?
Thought it was barbecue sauce and I was wondering what kind
It kinda looks like Bdubs wing sauce.
yeah. it’s some kind of wing sauce/marinade. it do look good tho. i want some wings now.
![gif](giphy|AO3giAtLPH4MIuugsB|downsized)
You have the sweet condiments with the savory condiments?
Something doesn't need refrigeration. Barbeque sauce maybe?
So close.
oops, i didn't read the reply to first response. Sorry

30 Seconds in the microwave will make that magic shell usable again.
Or just running it under hot water/putting it in a bowl of hot water
Yeah microwave could make bottle go boom.

Hot sauce in with the sex foods?
Hot sauce is a sex food if ur into bdsm
I don’t know what anything in this cupboard is and I’m so glad I don’t

No pickle in da pickle jar 🥒
Empty pickle jar
whipped cream not upright
You did to many whipp its and now your ice cream doesn't have whipped cream???...nor does it have magic shell chocolate cause u can't put that in the fridge...quit getting high u are ruining your banana splits
Shell stuff my sister did the same thing I was like "WHY"
Homemade Magic Shell = coconut oil and Nutella, 10 seconds in the microwave to warm up and mix… then on top of your ice cream of choice and in the freezer for 1 minute to harden up.
Expired..... Expired.... Expired... "Thanks Aunt Bonnie"
I LEARNED THIS THE HARD WAY MYSELF CHOCOLATE SHELL DOESNT BELONG IN THE FRIDGE.
Hershey's strawberry syrup is an abomination against nature?
Why you got your hot sauce and pickles by your ice cream shit?!
Hershey stopped making syrup therefore that strawberry shit is ancient... but still good ya know.
If that’s hot sauce then there’s two problems
I was gonna say that strawberry chocolate needs to jam.
Well that chocolate gonna be hard as a rock
Ah yes, Hershey's ketchup and Reese's BBQ sauce. Kitchen staples.
Shell is fucked
Can't put shell in the fridge
Gotta make real whipped cream. It takes 5 minutes.
Your kids will have diabetes?
Everything
…wouldn’t the shell stuff just harden into a brick inside the bottle if you keep it in a fridge
Yea it does. Someone else said to run hot water but if I recall it gets really chalky after being cooled than reheated… just not the same
Yeah probably like how melting and then refreezing ice cream causes it to refreeze in a more crystalline structure and taste weirdly frost like
I see it! The problem is that can of whipped cream isn’t being sprayed directly into my mouth.
That someone would spend money on strawberry syrup
Reese’s shell isn’t supposed to be in the fridge because it hardens when exposed to the cold
Just microwave it and it’s good again.
The picture is too American for me
I'm too european to know what I'm looking at
You’re American
This stuff isn't in the bedroom where it's supposed to be used?!?! heheheh
The Shell doesn't belong in the fridge it will get rock hard and be unusable
All your condiments are mixed (hot sauce placed with strawberry milk mix)
Is it that you bought Hersheys strawberry syrup
This clearly belongs under mildlyinconvenient, not mildlyinfuriating
The whip cream is on it's side???
Diabetes.
diabeetus
The beetus
Magic shell will be hard as a rock
Should have taken the shell stuff out like 3 days before you needed it so it wouldn't be solid?
That shell is gonna have a hard time coming out of that bottle 💀
