    The Flake bar is very different to the Flakes used for 99s. I don’t know what makes it that way but the texture and hardness is very different to the shop version.

    Aero (not mint) gets over the line. This next one could be a massacre I feel.

    Toffee Crisp

    Could it be that the flakes in 99s are refrigerated? When you buy them in a shop they're just lying around but in icecteam vans they're probably kept cold

    Bounty can go fcuk itself. I still stand by my previous statement that Nestle chocolate is shíte but anything beats a Bounty, so Toffee Crisp ftw.

    Perhaps. I have seen them taken from boxes sitting on counters though too, and it’s still a very different piece of chocolate to the bar version.

    Anyway, back to the tournament. I’m very partial to coconut, so controversially, it’s Bounty for me. Plus it comes in two parts, so easy to eat one and keep one for later.

    I find the ones used for ice cream are softer and nearly kinda stale tasting. Ones from the shop have a harder/snappier (?!) texture.

    Bounty can go fcuk itself.

    I enjoy this level of hatred towards a snack that brings joy to many.

    Bounty all day long. Toffee Crisp sounds like a three day old discharge.

    But is Bounty not Mars for the Nestle chocolate haters :pac:


    It doesn't matter. Any chocolate is better than Bounty, horrid coconut sh1te.

    Toffee Crisp ftw.

    Bounty be bounty


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,979 ✭✭✭TheMilkyPirate


    Toffee crisp by a million miles. Also not happy that an aero beat the flake


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    Another sudden death affair, next decision is crucial.

    Bounty


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,657 ✭✭✭somefeen


    Toffee crisp. The perfect blend of crunchy and chewy along with the satisfying experience of grabbing one end with your mouth and slowly pulling the bar apart. It makes you feel like a character from a western.

    Bounty. It has bits of coconut that get caught in your throat.

    Poochie05 with a very convincing argument above for Bounty it must be said. That seals a 5-4 victory.

    Star bar and toffee crisp gone in the first round, that ain't right.

    I dont like either tbh.

    But Snickers has to get the W here.

    Chocolate and orange should never be mixed.


  • Registered Users Posts: 58,456 ✭✭✭✭ibarelycare


    Terrys! Even though they’re half the size they used to be. Such an underrated chocolate.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,158 ✭✭✭frag420


    Snickers


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,657 ✭✭✭somefeen


    I can't stand anything that combines peanuts with chocolate, but if its oranges and chocolate I'm all over that like chocolate spread on a smooth cracker

    Chocolate orange


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,519 ✭✭✭✭dudara


    Terry’s chocolate orange for me.

    And it isn’t Snickers, it’s Marathon!


  • Site Banned Posts: 725 ✭✭✭Balanadan


    Terry's chocolate orange if the orange shaped one is included. If it's just chocolate bars, then Snickers.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,802 ✭✭✭✭the beer revolu


    Tough, I like both.
    Marathon bar is delicately salty and filling.
    Terry's has Christmas nostalgia.

    Final answer : marathon


  • Registered Users Posts: 880 ✭✭✭seamusk84


    Snickers. There are peanuts in it so I can pretend it’s healthy.
    Genuinely that’s what my brother and I thought as kids lol.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,582 ✭✭✭✭The Princess Bride


    Terry's by a shop load.

    I can't believe Curly Wurly lost.
    I might have to leave boards forever!

    Also can’t believe the Bounty hate!

    Chocolate first and then the delicious coconut by itself. Heaven! 😇
