Bites for a hamster?
YANBU.

That is a bite size though.

Or do you mean the amount of them in the pack?

I’m sure they are normally bigger then this 😤. Definitely hamster 🐹 bite size. Bad enough they ruined cadburys heroes and roses and now my favourite twirls 😭

I had a packet earlier. They were the same size as yours,mand have been since they brought them out I'm sure.

Roses are horrible now aren’t they?! They used to be my favourites when I was growing up!
I used to be able to buy a Twirl bar for about 30p when I was growing up too :-(

Totes crap, they keep ruining everything.

julensaor · 03/06/2019 20:50

confused, twirl bites have always been this size?

PatriciaHolm · 03/06/2019 20:52

Twirls still exist, those are a different product!

Grumpymug · 03/06/2019 20:59

Yeah, those things are just a bag of disappointment!
They don't even taste like twirl.
Now giant buttons on the other hand...... 😍

StrongleBerry · 03/06/2019 20:59

That's why they're called Twirl Bites and not just Twirls(Which are still around even if they're not as good as they used to be.)

I noticed the 4-packs of Dairy Milk/ Wispa/ Twirl/ Crunch bars often on promotion for £1 have shrunk by about 33% Shock

Rememberallball · 04/06/2019 09:06

@GarethSouthgatesWaistcoat, that’s nothing new. They have always been smaller than standard bars purely so they can market them as multipacks and sell them cheaper.

SoupDragon · 04/06/2019 09:08

I'm not seeing a problem with them TBH.

EffYouSeeKaye · 04/06/2019 09:10

Buy a ripple or several ripplesand chop into chunky pieces with a sharp knife. Infinitely better.

MamaRaisingBoys · 04/06/2019 09:10

I thought they used to be the size of the individual ones you get in the Christmas tubs

RubberTreePlant · 04/06/2019 09:20

It's the PMT perception effect. Try a whole cheesecake Wink

PutyourtoponTrevor · 04/06/2019 09:34

Twirl bites in their own bag have always been this size, the ones in the Heroes tubs are bigger as they are individually wrapped

Borntobeamum · 04/06/2019 10:02

I'd eat them!

GarethSouthgatesWaistcoat · 05/06/2019 18:52

Rememberallball but they're suddenly really short now! This was in Sainsburys but presumably they're everywhere. I suppose it's good for the waistline.

I've mostly moved onto Aldi chocolate Grin
