If you fancied a bit of chocolate and these were your options, what would you choose?

minstrels
twirl
Kit Kat
galaxy caramel
twix

All of them.

Would depend on my mood. Premenstrual me would pick the galaxy every time.
If I was at work it would be the twix or kitkat but I would class them a biscuit not a chocolate bar.

I’m at work and these are the options in the vending machine 😆

Minstrels. I like holding one in my mouth until the shell disintegrates, then I slowly suck the chocolate until it’s gone. It can take me forever to eat them so it saves me instantly wanting something else because I feel like I’ve had enough.

GoodnightJude1 · 08/08/2024 16:25

Twirl. Every single time!

I do this sometimes too. Makes my tongue kind of sore after a bit

Twirl first, Minstrels as second choice because you can make them last longer.

GameOfJones · 08/08/2024 16:25

Minstrels 100%. I suck them too @WishICouldWinnow so they last aaaagggggeeesss.

Biggaybear · 08/08/2024 16:26

Twirl.

MapleTreeValley · 08/08/2024 16:26

Twirl

Sakura7 · 08/08/2024 16:27

Twirl.

Maybe KitKat if having a cup of tea with it.

Purplecatshopaholic · 08/08/2024 16:27

Twirl for me too. Had one earlier..

Marmite27 · 08/08/2024 16:27

Galaxy caramel

Thecandywomancan · 08/08/2024 16:27

So far twirl is the winner. This is usually my to go as well

Twirl.. How many rows back does a vendor go ??

Nicebloomers · 08/08/2024 16:28

Not Kitkat. Probably minstrels or twirl

Scandiviews1 · 08/08/2024 16:29

Always forget how lovely kitkats are. So I'd have one of those if on a diet (hoho) and minstrels if not. Twirls get eaten too quickly.

ErrolTheDragon · 08/08/2024 16:29

If I wanted chocolate it obviously out of those it'd be the twirl because that's the only one that's chocolate rather than other stuff with a bit of chocolate.

Twirl/flake always tastes more chocolatey to me than a solid bar of comparable milk chocolate, I guess it's the surface area or faster melting or something.

If I want chocolate nowadays though it's got to be at least 85% cocoa

Gowlett · 08/08/2024 16:30

Twirl. Then Minstrels. Rarely bite them here, too!

PhilosophicalCheeseSandwich · 08/08/2024 16:30

Minstrels probably. I love chocolate, but I'm not keen on any of the other options. I don't even consider a KitKat as a treat, it's only one rung above a Blue Riband.

ErrolTheDragon · 08/08/2024 16:31

Kitkats are always disappointing because wafer is basically edible cardboard.

Gowlett · 08/08/2024 16:31

Errol, Twirl & Flake are made with chocolate crumb, it’s the only way to achieve the texture. So, they are more chocolatey!

ErrolTheDragon · 08/08/2024 16:31

Haven't had minstrels for decades - they'd be second choice.

Blueuggboots · 08/08/2024 16:31

A twirl with a cup of coffee....bite the ends off, suck the coffee up and shove it all in....🥰

ErrolTheDragon · 08/08/2024 16:33

Minstrels would be the best bet for eating at your desk if you're in an office or similar, though there's the danger you might feel compelled to share.
