Too sickly for me.
I like the Tonys stuff

DH ate some Matchmakers last night. Complained about lack of flavour. Of course, I'm going to have to test one now! It wouldn't surprise me, a lot of stuff seems to be getting spoiled with changes to the recipe these days.

Galaxy Caramel is my guilty pleasure, and the only chocolate I like in the fridge.

It's not as good as it used to be but I still like it.

Some of the Aldi chocolate is lovely but some of it is awful. Same as any own brand really.

@porridgeisbae nah, I live in the sticks 😰

Will someone please think about the orangutans...

@Tighginn Do they want a 'sharing bar'?

No, the just don't want to be extinct to satisfy human greed.

All Aldi Moser Roth bars are extremely nice

Pft, whilst i have some seriously posh chocolate in the house, sometimes only a galaxy caramel will do.

@porridgeisbae I wish I could be bothered to go round to the corner shop and buy some. But I can't guarantee that they'll have it. 😥

@BerfyTigot 'sorry' Grin

I suppose I'll be 'forced' to have a chocolate taste test. Smile @Portakalkedi @AllProperTeaIsTheft what Aldi ones do you recommend?

OP posts:
BerfyTigot · 01/12/2023 17:33

I've just been forced to add it to my online shop for tomorrow 😁

Portakalkedi · 01/12/2023 17:25

Cadbury is all shite since the introduction of the cost saving (and profit boosting no doubt) palm oil. Wouldn't have it given to me now, ditto Ferrero Rocher for the same reason - was given a box last christmas, I ate one and gave them to DH, who reluctantly finished them over a couple of weeks. Galaxy used to be lovely but has gone down the same path. Aldi and LIdl choc is still good, no crap in it.

penjil · 01/12/2023 17:14

Galaxy is made by Mars, isn't it?

So produced in the UK, but owned by an American conglomerate.

Probably not as plastic as Cadbury's Dairy Milk, although I'm not sure about the palm oil content in Galaxy.

I swear galaxy choc is thinner than it used to be :(

I wish I was!

But anyway... on the OP, YABVU for using the row of m's!

Does anyone else find that caramel doesn't taste of anything these days? It used to taste like liquid toffee - all sort of buttery and creamy (rubs thighs), but nowadays it's just like a greasy, sticky 'stuff' in the middle of things.

But Galaxy chocolate is my favourite of the chocolate I can eat (recently developed migraines at the merest hint of dark chocolate).
