Couldn't tell you meself - I don't eat them. But apparently, that's why Cadbury's changed their advertising a couple of years back...hoboh2o wrote:Worthy4England wrote:So you don't buy into the 20 years of "It's like gobbling cock" advertising that surrounded Flake's then?BWFC_Insane wrote:Only REAL mean can eat Flakes

Double Decker is great..
But my all time favourite was a bar called a Maverick Bar ... Fantastic, caramel, biscuit, raisins, toffee, all covered in chocolate, when they got withdrawn, i didnt realise, and then when my stocks ran low and i couldnt find anymore, the last bar i had ended up about a year out of date because i didnt want to eat it until i had found some more....
Eventually i did eat it, and despite the fact it had raisins in (which is the only thing to be wary of when eating out of date chocolate) it didnt do me any harm..
And was i the only person who sucked up a cup of tea through a finger of a Spira bar?!

Raisins are about the least of your worries in "British confectionary".Westhoughton Dave wrote:Double Decker is great..

You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Well I was quite partial to Old Jamaica, oh, and that Fry's cream thing. OK, OK. It's often a small price to pay.Worthy4England wrote:Take that back Sir.....Bruce Rioja wrote:Dark chocolate is simply a barbaric clag-at-back-of-throat forming hideousness.
I'd have though a Rioja man (clag at the back of the throat) would have understood dark chocolate
Anyhow, this thread allows me to expose the Swiss for being the spiteful bastards that they truly are. No, nothing to do with their hoards of Nazi gold, something far more sinister. Neutral, peace-loving timepiece makers my arse. The Toblerone is absolutely impossible to eat without the end-user ending up in anything other than in this hunched-over, face-gripping, mouth-covering, blood-dripping stance that reflects the oral carnage caused by said cavity-unfriendly unit. It comes as no surprise to me to note that the mean 4uckers border to their North both Germany and Austria. Enough said.

On this one I'm in full agreement. Over-sweet, sickly, annoying, stupidly-shaped and foul-tasting, Toblerone should never be allowed to leave Switzerland. They wanted to be neutral so they made this monstrosity. I'm speaking from memory because I only ever ate part of one. Horrible stuff.Bruce Rioja wrote: Well I was quite partial to Old Jamaica, oh, and that Fry's cream thing. OK, OK. It's often a small price to pay.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who hates dark chocolate. It tastes exactly the same as the chocolate you can buy for pets.Bruce Rioja wrote:Dark chocolate is simply a barbaric clag-at-back-of-throat forming hideousness.
Before anyone asks, yes I have tried pet chocolate once..............no, I don't know why
Don't call it a comeback
