Worst chocolate bar ever
« on: October 22, 2004, 02:50:47 pm »

Apologies if I'm re-visiting an old topic, I'm a new boy...


Just wondering what everyone thinks is, or was, the onion in the ointment when it comes to choc. On a personal level, I would rather stick a fork in my eye than eat a Bounty  but I know it's one of those love it or hate it products; the Marmite of chocolate, if you will. But can anyone remember a bar launched to universal distaste that died a swift death - or would anyone like to nominate one that should...?


On the same note, never try Cadbury's Tokke, available on the continent. If there was ever a reason not to join Europe, this is it! My mother bought me a 4 pack from Spain and I threw 3 away; for a choc lover like me that's rare...

I think it has to be those things called Aids, which were meant to be slimming chocolate, but which became strangely unpopular in about 1982.  For those too young, this is not a joke, it really was called Aids.  They tasted of soggy cardboard.

Another one I forgot - Flyte. Mars' attempt at a low fat chocolate bar. Low taste too! Does it still exist?

Fuse is pretty revolting and for me anything with praline.
Old but spicey!

I just remembered - Maverick was pretty disgusting.  Should have worked but somehow didn't.

Thank goodness there isn't a coffee flavoured Star bar or Snickers.

Toffee Crisp. Not sure if it ever tasted better than now, but now it tastes awful.

I agree, the chocolate is so cheap and horrible now. Used to be nice.
