Really?  Wunderbars are an ok change up, but not in the top ten, really...  Occasionally, they are ok, but the test of any top level chocolate bar is... "If I had 100 left over from halloween, would they last 3 days...  Wunderbars would last a month...



Weren't you one of the Vikings in the Wunderbar commercial?

I can't think of what a wunderbar tastes like.
My wife is amazing!

Ghirardelli chocolate squares are pretty delicious. The salted caramel is my personal fave.

As long as we are venturing away from the "Conventional chocolate bars" theme... Icy Squares and After Eight / Alpine chocolate mints..

These comments are sickening.

Wunderbar is an exceptional bar.

Mint in anything beyond gum/candies/fluoride flavouring at the dentist (although I'm a grape man myself) is completely wrong.

The butcher shop on Nairn with the cow on top has some of the best Milka bars...love that butcher shop!!  Best corned beef, best kielbasa, great European products.


Wunderbars are good..

All correct.

That Butcher Shop (think it's called Sausage Makers?) is where my family bought "the good stuff" as a treat from time to time when I was young. They still live in the neighbourhood and frequent it. Great quality products and a fantastic family business.

Mint/chocolate is the best combo (Hot Chocolate with Peppermint Schnaaps on a cold day, yum), followed closely by orange/chocolate (which Aero seems to have figured out with their seasonal bars)

Some people have issues with mint, like some people have issues with cilantro, it just doesn't sit well with their tastebuds, and I feel sorry for both groups.

Wunderbar is OK, but not a top 10 in my books.  I do occasionally like one, and would buy a box of hallowe'en assorted with them in it, knowing that I'd have some a month later still.

An After Eight or two with an evening coffee is pretty darn good, IMO.

Have to say, this thread, in the midst of a great CFL/Bomber football season, is epic.  :D

Looks like the thread these has made it onto twitter... lot of controversy over Crunchie over there... with Bug Turk getting mentioned...
