Life and chocolates

Was Forest Gump correct? Is life like a box of chocolates? I don't think so. Someone knows what's under that chocolate coating. It could be obvious from the nuts you see by shape, there could be an answer key in the lid, or you can just ask the person who packed it if you got it at a candy shop. Even if it was factory packed and there is no answer key, the manufacturer knows and you could go find out.
