This is getting a bit freaky now........don't tell me you did that with club biscuits too....
Forgotten those. Yup, Jacobs club, the orangey ones. I did nibble the choccy off.
I was also very expert at nibbling the choccy off the edge of McVities chocolate digestives and to do so without damaging the biscuit.

I used to use Twiglets as a drinking straw to, but that's a bit OT. They work though.
Maltesers were another. You can gauge and sense the pressure needed to just crack the chocolate off the inner part.
I used to like the old Terry Neopolitans but they stopped making those years ago. One gulp and they were gone, move on to the next one 🙂
Creme eggs are good when in season. Our apprentice at work found he could put mine in the microwave. He only did it the once......

I ordered yesterday 85% chocolate from UK. Waiting in over a month... For faster delivery had to pay more than $60!

The Green and Black's chocolate bars shown in the Amazon link that you posted look exactly like the ones I pictured in post #26 except that the nutritional info is different. 5 grams of sugar VS 8 grams. I can get them at out local grocery store (Kroger).
US stocking Amazon has them too (8g sugar). Just $2 more than from the UK.

On a related note, we just found a local store that carries "chocolate wine". Considered by some snobs to be a low-class candy-drink, all I can say is my low-class tastes really like the stuff. The bottle seems to empty kind of quickly tho.
My daughter works at Whole Foods and saves the vendor samples for me for Christmas. Usually get a box like this every year.
My Great Grand Parents were Cocoa Barons in Vinces, Ecuador. Very Wealthy. Owned acres and acres of Cocoa Plantations. My Mom's family still own several plantations but not to that extent. I think in order to be considered a fine chocolate, it has to include something like 12% Ecuadorian chocolate. Kallari is a great chocolate bar but I like Republica de cocoa. Expensive but so good!!!!

Agree here too.
Thats how I've found american chocolate to be too, far too sweet to the point that they make your eyes roll up in the back of your head and get instant level 2 diabeetus.
I've tried japanese chocolate with Green tea flavouring, best stuff ever but the size of the bars are tiny!
I grew up eating Freddo Frogs and Wagon Wheels.
We're keeping the good stuff for ourselves. 🙂 Not sure which American candies you guys get. I mean if it's Mars or Hershey group, then your real hope lies in Scharffenberger.
My daily driver of chocolate is TJ's pound plus dark. It's definitely not the best stuff, but the price-to-quality ratio hits me right.

I used to love Cadburys Wispa's but I found they started getting quite bitter.
I am now into Cadbury's Twirls which taste better.
