    Ahh well, yes. Or Hotel Chocolat. But Lindt can be got in most supermarkets

    Probably, yes. Their 70% 85% and Chilli is far better IMHO than G+B

    YMMV natch.

    Yeah. Their after eight a likes are lovely, but their dark fruit and nut
    really doesn't seem to taste of much.

    Valrhona can be found in some supermarkets, but I grant you it's not
    commonly available. If you prepared to buy on line my favourite is
    Amedei or Cluizel.

    I need to tell people to stop buying me those for christmas. I'm not
    sure whether I've gone off them, or they've gone downhill, or both.

    But the Lindt stuff is streets ahead. Has to be stored well though, last
    time I bought some from a different shop it was foul.

    Milk chocolate full of booze. What's not to like?

    Sometimes I think Bin Laden has a point. Grown men discussing which is
    the finest chocolate. Jesus wept.

    I confess we have Hotel Chocolat delivered often enough to seldom buy
    anything else.

    How about this?

    "Cadbury has removed the famous phrase "glass and a half" from its
    Dairy Milk bars after 80 years, having been told it contravenes
    European regulations.

    In its place, it now reads: 'The equivalent of 426ml of fresh liquid
    milk in every 227g of milk chocolate'."

    yeah, but not just that - the inside of the chocolate casings
    surrounding the massively sweet filling was all nasty and crystalised,
    and the outside of the chocolate was staring to bloom white - they
    were well within sell-buy date - I can only presume either they had
    been badly stored or they came out of the factory as shit as that.

    AIUI the crystalisation is the cheap way of making the shell liquid
    tight. As for the bloom: yeuch.

    Which, to me, is a Good Thing. I like Marmite crisps, I like Twiglets.

    I can't stand Marmite.
