Blue Bloody Ribands

My husband was going shopping this morning so I asked if he could get a pack of chocolate bars (we get some every week) He asked which ones so I said, Oh whatevers on offer. It's sometimes Boosts, sometimes Toffee Crisps, just get whatever's there.
He comes home 40 minutes later with a multipack of Blue Fucking Ribands. Actually proud of himself. Ok, I thought, breathing deeply, he's got them for himself, he will have of course picked up the chocolate bars I asked him to buy. Nope. Just a pack of 16 or so Blue Ribands. AIBU that Blue Ribands are ghastly and have a stupid name to boot?

Blue Ribands like chocolate rich tea are an absolute waste of chocolate. I always resented my mum when it was blue riband in my lunch box, what the hell was wrong with a penguin?

LTB. It’s the only solution.

Blue Ribands are barely even a biscuit. You dunk one and it goes to soggy tissue and a slick of chocolate. Deffo not a chocolate bar other than being bar shaped and having a teeny bit of chocolate on.

That would majorly piss me off. Not ever acceptable.

They are under 100 calories, which means you can eat them before and after every meal or at least I am in lockdown

Yes because they are cardboard.
