Sam-AVFC Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Any love for the Star Bar yet? Basically a Boost with nuts as the crunchy bit. I'm also a big fan of the criminally underepresented Gold bar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One suspects you two are talking about different Turkish Delight. Rob is talking about a flat slab of purple jelly that vaguely tastes like rose petals and is covered in crap milk chocolate You will probably be talking about the real thing. They are vastly different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My reasoning was that you probably can't get Fry's Turkish Delight in Australia and nothing to do with you, then given the large numbers of Greek / turkish origin people in Australia, I figured the real thing was probably quite widely available How very vain of you to think I even considered you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You assume that my taste buds like the real thing, when I actually find it almost foul. If we're talking about the same, 'the real thing''. I am half Greek btw. I like the sh*tty milk chocolate version. Edited September 16, 2019 by A'Villan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 To make it worse bickster I like the Cadburys dairy milk + Turkish delight bar that they unfortunately discontinued Probably the right thread for this, since the kraft buy out I think you can see the way the market has changed, the increasing price and shrinking size is killing the chocolate bar, if its on offer a slab will be 20-30p more, not sure when Cadburys actually last released a new bar (wispa gold rerelease?) yet they seemingly have a new slab flavour every couple of months, then you look at the minis bags (which imo are shit) no doubt market tested there must be more money to be made in weird and wonderful variations of dairy milk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
