I either have a bag of revels or a bag of minstrels

I'm sitting here trying to think if there's a chocolate candy I don't like. Nope.

My faves:

Reese's PB cup (original only, none of that inside out or double chocolate crap!)
York peppermint Patty
Skor or Heath
Baby Ruth
Cadbury Creme egg
Watchamacallit (used to LOVE these - do they even make them anymore?)
Dove dark or Hershey's Special Dark
Any Lindt chocolate

Also love chocolate covered raisins, peanuts or cherries.

^ So they DID discontinue it? Bastards.

Every single day when I was around 15, I would go to the store, buy a pack of Marlboro Lights, a 20oz Diet Coke & a Watchamacallit. Yeah, I was a real health nut. Those were the good old days.

And I dunno, I never really looked. I'm sure I could get some in Canada on the black market or something.

Not here they haven't! They're always stocked in the dining halls on campus and I always see them in vending machines in most places.

I had to solve the mystery

Apparently it's still available

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

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

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

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.
