I buy a Mars on the odd occasion when they’re $1 at the Coles checkout.

That and "educator who needs a bribe to make their class of students/workshop attendees pay attention" or "desperate parent entertaining large group of children" makes up most of the purchases of that kind of chocolate, according to my reckonomics

Snickers is the superior poo poo tier chocolate bar. Followed closely by the Chokito.

I'm not a fan of chocolate bars unless there's some interesting texture. Kit Kats, Time Outs, Twirls, etc. Twix are pretty good. Mars bars suck because they are just soft all the way through. Snickers suck because the peanuts aren't salted

I'm not sure if you've ever noticed this but mars bars have a solid chocolate coating. It's around the soft part. ALso caramel has a different texture to nougat.

They're pretty good I'll admit that. Although they got rid of the one I liked that had three different flavours in each chunk?

I've got your number. YOu superciliously walk past the mars bars and snickers to the section where they stock garbage like Terry's Chocolate Orange and Green & Blacks Dessicated Gojiberry block before leaning down to grab the Lindt 85% dark fuckhead bar.

bar with bad branding and a dubious concept that is actually really good: Cadbury Marvellous Creations Jelly Popping Candy.

they are fun to chew and the caramel flavour is unique. Try refrigerated and unrefrigerated
