Smackette sniffed out an Irish market around the corner of our new place in SF. They serve imported puddings, real bacon and porks, lucozade and of course hob knobs and other choccie goodies. Bloody things are costing me a fortune.

I have a Scottish pie place around the corner from me that sells stuff like that. Damned British store hours too! Don't know how they can afford to stay in business when most people don't have time to shop until after they close.
At $1.50 to $2.00 for a candy bar, they don't have to sell much to stay in business.

Yeah, but you have to admit that Reece's Peanut Butter Cups are tasty. We got the formula right on those.

Of course your wrong mankie,
A lot of British chocolate, (cadburys) has a very low cocoa content, 20% or less. So low infact that the european union were going to make them call it someting other than chocolate, non emulsified fat and sugar with a little bit of cocoa, or something equally ridiculous.
Hersheys is made with sour milk which makes it taste like vomitus. Cadburys form hershey though is OK, just a little different, but then so is the irish stuff. It must be all the hormones they feed the cows in Britain that makes Cadburys so good.
Other American treats are shite because they put peanuts in them.

I like bounty's and they are just coconut covered in chocolate, like mounds, I think.
The only good use for peanuts is to try and see how many you can fit under your foreskin, oh wait………

Irish stuff is every bit as good as the Brit stuff….Moro's! OH MY GOD! Why did the feck'n Irish keep that one to themselves? BASTARDS! It's been discontinued though and replaced with something called "Boost" which is almost the same so I was able to go on living.
I agree, what's with American chocolate and it's obsession with peanut butter/peanuts?
I relate yank chocolate with Mexican food…same three ingredients know matter how many different ways you present it.
Boost is awful

I really have no preference between the hershey fruit and the one from ireland. Neither of them taste quite righht to me, neither are so bad that I wont eat a big bar in 5 minutes.
What are Moro's you lost me.
I love cadburys biscuit boosts best of all……
