White chocolate isn't even chocolate.

I used to eat Snickers until I learnt they are now made in China.

I'll add those Reese's Peanut Butter Cups can GTFO as well. Horrible and way too sweet. Mind you, I'm not big on peanut butter anyway.

Turkish delight is the bomb - just not with chocolate

needs to be fresh and dusted
not smothered in chocolate

I think a lot more people are lactose intolerant but don't realise it.
makes sense as only 1/3 or so of the worlds population can tolerate it.
some great info on how humans came to tolerate lactose (as adults) on the web (eg https://evolution.berkeley.edu/evolibrary/news/070401_lactose)

Oh ok. Thought it was European .?! On marzipan , it’s sweet
and abit sorta mushy coconuty to chew. Wonderful. Maybe someone had the liqueur one .
