The baby sized holes in the pavement I've experienced were in Denpasar, Bali. It made riding one's bicycle home along the pavement somewhat difficult.

We have a charity box at work and sometimes I think they put the chocolates in there that the companies haven't been able to sell elsewhere...occasionally, you'll get things that you don't see regularly in Oz like Reese's peanut butter cups. Other times, you get chocolate which is obviously old as it's gone white.
