Has anyone found Texans in any of the multiples like Woolies or tescos or anywhere yet? I have not found a single one anywhere in Peterborough.
Luckily, I ordered some from Hello Sweetie but once those were gone I wasn't bothered about buying anymore. It wouldn't bother me if they don't continue to make them but what it does prove is that a lot of chocolate bars get axed not because people don't like them but because of their poor availability. Stores are not carrying out proper marketing investigations to see what the public really want to buy and eat.

not seen them anywhere else in London. You're right
oldspice, the buyers for large stores aren't doing
their jobs properly. Nestle is also doing a poor job in
their distribution and marketing, you'd think that
they'd have allocated a sizeable amount of their
advertising budget to the Texan launch.

They bring out SO MANY new products though that I dont think they can
afford it. What have we had this year? New Aeros, orange Rolos,
xploding smarties bars, various Kitkat flavours, wonka bars etc.
Whereas Cadbury and Mars bring out new products less often but with
propper launches. Also any new Dairy Milk flavour will be snapped up by
all shops anyway cos it's the bes selling chocolate bar.

If you are in the southwest “Trago Mills” of all place had them!
Like we're all going to drive to Trago for the chance of a Texan!!I heard from someone here they were at the Texaco garage but they are now sold out... They were definitely not at Woolworths when I went last weekend.

creamy. Also plenty of choice. Caramel, shortcake biscuit and fruit and
nut all swap places as being my favourite.

Albeit, I do like that word!
I remember seeing it on paper for the first time and wondering what it was.

It's nice to have favourite words. Mine are:
crimson, refreshing, scarlett
