Apologies if I'm re-visiting an old topic, I'm a new boy... 
Just wondering what everyone thinks is, or was, the onion in the ointment when it comes to choc. On a personal level, I would rather stick a fork in my eye than eat a Bounty 
but I know it's one of those love it or hate it products; the Marmite of chocolate, if you will. But can anyone remember a bar launched to universal distaste that died a swift death - or would anyone like to nominate one that should...?
On the same note, never try Cadbury's Tokke, available on the continent. If there was ever a reason not to join Europe, this is it! My mother bought me a 4 pack from Spain and I threw 3 away; for a choc lover like me that's rare...

Thank goodness there isn't a coffee flavoured Star bar or Snickers.

I probably stand alone on this one, but Crunchie bars.....hate them.
And Bournville.

...Turkish Delight.
I'm coming to realise I don't like exciting or fancy chocolate tastes.
I like my chocolate simple and rich. Like my men!
Post by: chocolate chick on October 25, 2004, 06:37:49 pm
Turkish Delight is nice but in little doses.
I don't like Aero anymore.

worst choc bar ever = bounty
most boring = crunchie
best = turkish delight
best chocolate of any kind = leonidas or jaffa cakes
what's the point in crunchies? they're just a bit of chocolate with some gold 'stuff' that tastes awful. i forget what the 'stuff' is called, and it's ncie in small doses, but not making up 75% of the bar...
Post by: kevvosa on October 31, 2004, 06:35:59 pm
many Crunchie Nuggets and feeling sick, I havent touched them since
(apart from a Crunchie McFlurry, but that doesnt count).
Post by: calcoholic on October 31, 2004, 06:43:28 pm
It's called Honeycomb. I used to like em but after scoffing far too many Crunchie Nuggets and feeling sick, I havent touched them since (apart from a Crunchie McFlurry, but that doesnt count).
to this day i have never had a crunchie mcflurry! i just dont see the need, because i hate crunchies anyway, and smarties/dairy milk are so nice
Post by: kevvosa on November 01, 2004, 06:44:06 pm
and Toffee Crisp McFlurry's...a shame they were limited.
Did they ever do a Bounty McFlurry?

I can't think of one UK choccie bar I really hate...but if you wanna try some minging chocolate, go onto cybercandy and order some U.S 'chocolate' bars.
Hersheys...minging butterfinger..like fibre glass wrapped in chocolate and the worst ever...a watchimacallit...tasted like chicken and corn

Not pleasant.

Had Lindt Crunchy Caramel the other day...and its to die for. It has a really nice flavour to it. I was very impressed.
As for yuck...had Lindt 85% Cocoa Solids. It was vile. Like eating a spoonful of cocoa powder.
