OK, best place to buy Cadbury's Chocolate?

[guitarpete247]

Mis-shapes at 20p for a 2lb bag. Those were the days.

Still get them in outlet shop but not that price and not as good.

Staff only at the local factory.

Cadbury's sold in the UK is not what it used to be. They (Mondelez) changed the ingredients and moved manufacturing to Eastern Europe to the detriment of taste.

Yes they did and a lot of people in Birmingham lost their jobs. it tastes greasy now and nothing like the original recipe. I thought the new buyer was Kraft.
I agree with Pat, Aldi and Lidls chococlate is far superior so is Green and Blacks and Lindt. I wont buy it now.

My late dad was proud to work for Cadburys and it's a crying shame what the government pushed through to facilitate the sale to Kraft using RBS.

Green and Blacks was owned by Cadburys, so I presume that they're now part of the plastic cheese empire.

chewed because it has been formulated to withstand 40°C ambient temps!

No food in Australia is designed to withstand 40C**. They have air conditioning. HTH.

**Well, except kangaroos, but only if you leave them in their original packaging.

Well, I didn't like it. In fact I didn't like anything I bought in the supermarkets while I was there. Beer was crap, the bread tasted funny and the biccies weren't as nice. Had a self catering apartment, but resorted to eating out after cooking a couple of times and being disappointed...

I think I shall take your recommendation (but will I tell the kids?)

As others have said, Aldi dark chocolate is top banana.

If it has to be Cadbury's, then the stuff made in Dublin is still quite tasty.

Ask her to bring some bars from Aldi or Lidl as well, they are only about a pound each for a big one and then you can do a comparison.

Nah, let them get their own.

I used to really enjoy a plain Dairy Milk but since they changed the shape,weight and taste I havent really had one on principal. My main Cadbury vice was Double Deckers which they also changed, cheapened the taste and texture of the biscuity base. I still but the odd product but not like I used to.

Aldi dark chocolate with almonds is almost impossible to get Home unopened.

Sounds nice. I'll keep an eye open for that next time i'm in there.
