[#11196588]

I love an awful lot of chocolate bars, some of my favourites include Topic, Picnic & right up the is the Reeses wafer stick things

Yes I know it's not actual chocolate, but that aside the one that makes my tastebuds explode is the humble Crunchie, I normally have at least one bar of something a day, but in lockdown times I have been having one snack size Crunchie a day & it's not enough, I'm still buzzing from the one I had 20 minutes ago, I want another.
What is your chocolate nemesis?

Boost, love the combination of chewy and crunchy, proper mouthful.

Not a chocolate bar but I can sit there and eat through a large sharing pack of peanut M&Ms in fairly short order.
I tend not to buy them for that very reason!

Dammit, I'm thinking about opening a 200g bag of chocolate raisins now!

To be fair, so can I.

Now started on a bar of Aldi low budget fruit and nut.

Yorkie Biscuit and Raisin.

But the crack of the chocolate world is most definitely...

Boost just taste really artificial and bad.
Fridge cold star bars are the bestest.

Ultimate favourite isn't a chocolate bar but an ice cream snickers.

Oooh, those cherry ripe sound like the legendary Cabana

For high-consumption choco-filth though, it was* the mighty Galaxy for me - the king of common chocolate

(*and now I'm T2 diabetic 🙁 )

Lots of good calls here. The peanut M&Ms I have to strictly ration, too moorish.

The Aldi fruit and nut (posher of their two choices) is to die for.

Star Bar and Boost are peas from the same pod. Love them both, don't understand how you could like one and not the other. Weirdo.

Ice cream snickers. Yes!

However, for me a bag of M&S chocolate peanuts and M&S chocolate raisins, mixed together, has me drooling at the thought. Chocolate heaven

Kit Kat chunky (milk or white)
Drifter
Boost
Lion bar
Mint Aero

Chocolate bars are like films, I can’t pick an absolute favourite, so that’s my top 5.

Cadbury’s Twirl or Galaxy Minstrels, straight from the fridge. Or, when they’re in season, Cadbury’s Cream Egg. Also straight from the fridge.

Strictly low carb these days though, so no chocolate has passed my lips since Easter.

Funny you should say that. I'm a very dark, bitter chocolate man myself, the more cocoa the better, but I love a Crunchie.

I can't think of any reason why I like Fry's Turkish Delight, but I almost always buy one when I do the supermarket shop and eat it when I get back to the car.

I once read them described as 'A refrigerated human organ dipped in chocolate', which is actually pretty accurate. Still can't help myself though.

I love a bag of caramac buttons, but I fear they've been discontinued. 😕

Big fan of a kit kat chunky, with it without peanut butter. I wish they'd do a dark chunky though.

Flipz are pretty good as well.

And I know this is a biscuit, but I can't stop once the choco liebniz are popped.

Think Home Bargains had some Caramac Buttons. But I take no responsibility for the consequences should you find them there.

They are like crack cocaine.

Also, dangerously addictive are the US Peanut Butter M&M's. A cross between the Peanut M&M and a Reese's Cup. Holy moly, they are good. Probably banned in the UK because the NHS couldn't afford the consequences.

Danger - do not click here

Spira was mine but not been available for 16 years so I no longer have a favourite really, I'll munch anything that isn't dark chocolate as that is truly awful!

Or, when they’re in season, Cadbury’s Cream Egg. Also straight from the fridge.

When I was a kid my mum worked for Coca-Cola Schweppes who also owned Cadbury’s. At that time they had a high reject rate on Creme Eggs as they couldn’t get the machine to reliably wrap the packaging so the barcode was visible, no barcode = reject. The rejects used to go to the staff shop. Mum could pick up a carrier bag full, completely full, of eggs for 50p. Happy days

Chocky brazils of any kind, but I think it's Holland and Barrett that do some with thick Belgian chocolate. Nom.

Kit kat chunky peanut butter flavour, the chocolate crack of my world. Have to say some of the choices above, make my stomach turn (looking at you Stevious), but then it's good as I don't have to fight you for my fix

No love for Maltesers?

None, none at all, fricken waste of good chocolate... unless were talking about the new maltesers buttons, which are joyous.

The Greggs baked bean bake of chocolate. Sometimes you just want some mass-manufactured filth.

Anyhow, it's not like there's much refinement in the British confectionary industry?

Crunchie is king hands down

Then maltesesers and peanut m and ms and anything else that comes in the ultimate delivery method that is hand shovelling.

Then all other chocolate.

I love Crunchies but there is one thing I love more than Crunchies and that is vanilla ice cream with Crunchies crumbled up and sprinkled on the top...

Dark Chocolate Bounty

I struggle to put into words how awful I think this to be, and I’m in too good a mood to even try.

Phwoar

Dark chocolate bounty. If you mixed a dark chocolate bounty with the cherry thing above that might top the charts.

I'm with you on crunchie on icecream johndoh but thats a desert.

How they got the crunchie icecream thing so wrong i don't know!
