Best chocolate bar ever

[dholliday]

Mine.

I'm liking this new trend where you name your favourite thing too rather than just coldly datamine.


This is mine:

If you think you know Marzipan think again. It's not molten sugar like the cheap stuff, it's sumptiously-rich almond paste. The dark chocolate-covering is just perfect.

Reassuringly expensive.

Meaning if this costs 10 times as much as your Mars bar, then enjoy one of these in the usual time-span you would consume 10 Mars bars. Like a high-end Single Malt, some things are worth enjoying in small doses.

Why do the English hate chocolate and peanut butter together?

Reece's Peanut Butter Cups are the tits.

Think the hatred of peanut butter goes far beyond UK borders. When I used to live in Germany, I goaded one of my German friends to try some Jif. After declining several times, he tried a spoonful and then proceeded to spew all over the floor.

You persuaded a friend to consume washing up liquid? No wonder he was sick, mate.

It's a form of concentrated lemon juice in the UK.

True. In Germany, I had trouble with the words for muggy/humid and homosexual. Very similar.

Hmm...guess that just leaves more for us then

@dholliday Germans don't like peanut butter either?

come on lids,you've clearly forgotten Bourneville....

Named after a suburb of Birmingham where it is made, a little odd fact,George Cadbury built the village for his workers,300+ homes,parks,sporting facilities, shops etc,however being a Quaker he wouldn't allow alcohol to be sold in his Village so no pub was built.To this day there remains no pub,and Tesco's in Bournville sell no alcohol.

now then, if that history lesson isn't worth some reps,then I don't know what does !!!.

Not sure, actually...it's not common anyway. I kinda enjoy it myself every once in a while, but can't hack more than one or two slices before it gets sickly (bit like Nutella).

I wish proper English Tea was sold here...I truly miss Yorkshire Tea. Shredded Wheat too. English chocolate bars not so much.
