Ooooh that looks dangerous for me! Well I just did a little online research and it turns out there is a World Market just about an hour from me - so if they carry the same stock as the one in New Mexico I'm all set :D

By the way - it was Dairy Milk Bubbly I tried...haven't tried the other varieties. Flake has been my favorite for a while though. I still have three at home that I'm trying to ration :p


As far as American crap goes I enjoy:

Reese's Peanut Butter Cups
Twix (caramel and peanut butter)
Snickers
Kit Kat


Those are my top pics...but really I never met a chocolate bar I didn't like...oh except the nasty Russian chocolate a friend sent me. That was not so good.

And Canada is useful for something? I don't believe this at all.

i know. it is hard to believe. i am still not sure i can get the Brit chocolate there though, so they may still be useless. next time i go i'll look into it & keep you posted.

This is a very cruel thread since there's no chocolate right now in my house...:distress:;)

Anyway, I love many of those you mentioned, especially Flake and Maltesers...
and:
Milka Choco & Rice

Most of Ferrero chocolates (Italians grow up with them), like:
Tronky

Barrette Kinder

Milk. Actually there's more milk than chocolate in them, or at least that's what Ferrero tells us. But they have a great reputation so I believe them :D. Moreover they put big surprises in their Chocolate eggs as every Italian kid knows.

OOh! Kinder Eggs??? I have a friend from Germany who used to bring those back to me. I love the little toys!!

Nestle tried to do that in the U-S - but as we cater to the stupid here - they were promptly discontinued for fears that children would eat the toys :rolleyes:

Milk...is it sweetened or is it a bit of chocolate with actual milk-tasting milk in the center??

The centre is like a soft, very milky white chocolate :) Very sweet indeed :o

I was just explaining to my colleague what flakes are and told her about the ice cream. There is a division of Cadbury located in this building, a couple of floor up. Maybe i should pay them a visit :D
