Am reallllllly sad. I don't want minstrels. And I don't want to buy a bag of revels just to get counters. Also I don't want a bar of galaxy.
Everywhere near me is a counter free place. The only counters are the ones you put the till on.

Maybe the one show will do a bit on their untimely demise. I am sad.

Noooooooo, I love them!

Whothefuckdoesthat · 08/10/2024 17:43

That has made me so sad

Ibloodylovetea · 08/10/2024 17:44

Outrageous! We love them Am so peed off with the way chocolate manufactures are playing fast & loose with our favourites. What happened to 'whole nut' choc for example?😡

Never mind - I’m hoping to bring back Treets !

good job I’m here to save the day 🤣

I am so upset about this. And my local Tesco have stopped stocking Galaxy caramel which was my other favourite! And milkybar have changed their recipe last year so now that’s vile too.

☹️☹️☹️☹️

They're just not as good as Minstrels.

Bloatstoat · 08/10/2024 18:11

Nooooooooooo! I still haven't got over those little mars bite things going. Must they take everything?!

ChristmasPostman · 08/10/2024 18:12

They have? How do you know this? Bloody hell, my week just keeps getting worse and worse and it’s only Tuesday! 😩

Oh gosh I'd forgotten about Treets!

Counters are just rubbish Minstrals, though...!

Where have you heard this? My daughter loves them! She’ll be gutted as it’s one of few chocolates she likes (she’s more into savoury snacks).

Aren’t peanut M&Ms just Treets with different colours?

ArabellaFishwife · 08/10/2024 18:15

It bothers me that we're never warned in advance about imminent deprivation of key items. I needed notice about Topics, for instance. Criminal.

Daleksatemyshed · 08/10/2024 18:18

And toffee, what's become of toffees? I don't want to buy Quality Street just to see a toffee. I miss treacle toffee, it was bloody lovely

sweatervest · 08/10/2024 18:24

i am feeling emapthy from counter-queens (i.e. you guys)

i have seen them on cash and carry websites but i don't know if they've sold out by the time you get to the checkout.

literally zero counters anywhere near me. the man in the corner shop said to me last week "he [the other man that works there] is going to get YOUR chocolate [i.e. counters]" and there's none there.

i literally i could have done with a warning that they've disappeared.

my daughter is gutted.

Can get them on amazon but only in bulk, so about £30.

SophiaJ8 · 08/10/2024 18:51

Sad times. I still miss Cadbury tasters - they were my uni exam snacks.

MrsMcNallysMaureen · 08/10/2024 18:54

I have literally just got some in my Whoosh order!

SausageShop · 08/10/2024 18:54

They're in my local Morrisons, I nearly picked them up the other day instead of Minstrels!

SilverShadowNight · 08/10/2024 19:10

Treets were much better than M&Ms. Thicker chocolate by far, which tasted much better.

The last time I tried M&Ms they were awful.

EmeraldDreams73 · 08/10/2024 19:15

Omg nooo. We love them.

And we are all fat so can do without them but don't want to

CharlotteStreetW1 · 08/10/2024 19:15

Sod it 🤬

Fourfurrymonsters · 08/10/2024 19:17

They taste artificial and that nasty colourings go over your fingers.

PullTheBricksDown · 08/10/2024 19:20

FML. Really like them and haven't had any for ages but just thought, well, you know, they'll be there when I want them😫

CoastalCalm · 08/10/2024 19:23

I don’t think they’ve been discontinued at all just not available at your local shop
