I am furious with Mars Celebrations

rob316

So I opened a box of celebrations last night and to my disgust Galaxy truffle had been replaced by Twix! Unforgivable I tell you..

Twix would batter truffles in a fight

Thats it. Christmas is ruined.

Cheers OP.

Oh_Noes

Celebrations are the chavs of the boxed-chocolate world.

Thanks for the heads up OP.

It'll be a Miniature Heroes Christmas in my house, if that's the case. Bastards. :mad:

I feel nothing but the blackest of despair on this the darkest of days for confectionery.

I'm surprised I can feel anything at all......simply devastating news OP.

So now there are Milky Ways, Mars AND f**king Twixeses that wont be eaten!!

twix is good but the truffle was the best

Miniature Heroes are the rat's knackers. The mini Cadburys Creme Eggs seal the deal

Jaysus. :eek:

Tough times, tough times. This recession is even reaching far into our favourite festive sweets. Will we have to resort back to inferior 1980s favourites such as Quality Street, Black Magic and those rank Aftenoon Tea biscuit tins? It doesn't bear thinking about.

All it will take for world war 3 at this stage is a little thing like a Victoria biscuits tin without the roundy chocolate bickie covered in gold foil..:eek:

It's very sad that there aren't coffee sweets in Roses and Quality Street. They were my favourite.:(:(:(

Yes. Jellies on biscuits. The idea itself belongs in the 1980s. Those pink wafers are also in Afternoon Tea.

Choc mallows rock. A timeless classic :cool:

Don't forget 'Double centres'. A truly awful sweet where each one was at least 50% mank

Sooo... if it's not mass-produced, it has to be made by me?

Raminahobbin

This is almost as bad as when Roses decided to get rid of all their foil covered chocolates I loved the praline ones and the little square truffle ones!!

B*stards. All of them. Ruining Christmas.

Not all chocolate you buy out there will be mass-produced, some will be from small craft production companies. Not going to bother going into detail here, Google is your friend.

Change the snickers for the twix at least then it's just the bounty's to throw out after christmas.

Ice cream Snickers now, they are a different story.

The Galaxy truffles though, they are the best by far in the box.

If you eat them properly (at christmas, in the dark, watching Indiana Jones, sipping your 8th glass of coke and dipping them deeply in cream before eating them) you won't even notice that they have different flavours.
