Quality Street is the backup choccies if the Lindor milk choc truffles have benn snaffled by the choccy pixies. Mrs Pie has an allergy to all things chocolate!

What happened to terrys chocolate orange and those tiny individual wrapped chocolate bars of varying flavours?

It is, I have just found out possible to eat a box of Celebrations, drink a bottle of Pinot and still have room for a chocolate pudding. I am though feeling slightly uncomfortable.

Don't forget that the manufacturers of these chocolates have reduced the amount in the "tins". There are less in now than say 5 years ago,even if they're still sold for a fiver a "tin".:dry:
Worse than that they have also reduced the amount of Cocoa in them too. Cadbury since taken over by Kraft the American plastic food company are now the especially cr@p.

None her,we have been asked to do a bit of a diet,by the nurse at the health centre. Bob's phone 061.jpg Mind you i did sneak these two 'nuts' this week.
 
Peanut butter on toast topped with sliced banana.Dont eat chocolate
Doesn't seem to fill the same eating niche as tiny chocolates. It's more like a mini meal than an amuse bouche.

A healthy alternative to choccies would be the traditional bowl of nuts in their shell, with Christmas themed nut cracker. You have to work for each one, and they are very nutritious.

And I just realised it's a Christmas memory when there is only brazil nuts left, taking one to a comfy chair with nut cracker, because opening those bastards is an engineering project - which is why no one ate any until all the other nuts were gone
