Box of Chocolates is a name given to a phenomenon often encountered on the Internet, be it in dating services, Myspace, college forums like Campusblender.com, or anywhere where users can submit a picture of themselves for viewing. Box of chocolates refers to a picture submitted by one of these users that lacks captioning to inform the viewer of which person in the picture they are.
The coining of this term references a 1994 film adaptation, Forrest Gump, wherein the main character Forrest is sitting on a bench next to someone, and conveys to them a lesson of life that his mother taught him: "Life is like a box of chocolates: You never know what you're going to get." And much like that box of chocolates, when looking at the group picture of this individual, you never know which one you're dealing with, be it the hot chick, or one of her fattie friends surrounding her, making her look good by proxy.
