    Quality Street tastes awful now. Not what they used to be.
    Roses seem to have ditched the Dairy Milks in the tins and replaced the green sweets with a coffee flavour which is meh.

    Celebrations or Heroes all the way.

    Quality Street are absolutely horrible

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    None of you have any idea.

    Milka - combined with jelly beans - combined with that old willy wonka stuff that used to crackle and pop in your mouth.

    It exists.

    You can sit there with choc melting in your mouth -

    - then maybe chew some jelly -

    - then when you are bored just hang your mouth open and listen to the willy wonka crackle :)

    All in one bar!!!

    It's close between Roses and Celebrations, but it's gotta be Celebrations.

    **** all that ****. Lindt is the ultimate chocolate. It's fairly expensive but worth it.

    Quality Street are ironically named. Celebrations became dead to me since they got rid of the truffles. Roses got rid of a few good ones too. Heroes are good though.

    Celebrations.

    Feck roses. They've made the tins ridiculously small the last few years. Nothing in them now.

    Never liked Quality Street.
    Roses chocolate is gone a bit cheap and bland.

    The ones I love are Ferrero Rocher, After Eights, Terrys Chocolate and Celebrations.

    They are all terrible. Too many toffees and pralines.

    Ferrero Rocher for me are the yummiest of all. Long may they be around!

    thorntons chocolates are lovely!, i think roses arent the same as they used to be, but due to tradition you will always find a box or two in my house at christmas minus the red and blue ones those are my favourite ones yum!
