Toffee crisp, wtaf!

[SupernaturalAddict]

Fancied a toffee crisp bar and haven't had one for years. I put a four pack on the food delivery and they came. Sat down with a nice brew and wtf?! It was non existant nearly. The only thing i can compare it to is sleeping with a bloke who has a microscopic penis (which i have navigated, once). Two mouth fulls and that's it.

In my head I remember them being at least four times the size. What on Earth is going on?

Picture supplied to show lacking size.

For the poll:-
Yanbu: they are a shadow of their former selves
Yabu: they have never changed size and are massive

Not only does it smell of vomit, it also tastes like vomit. It burnt my throat when I tried it. Disgusting 🫣

M &S caramel crispy bites are much nicer these days

Time outs now barely have chocolate inside. They used to have a think layer of flake.

I had one tonight; definitely smaller, the bar and the crispies, they used to be like proper rice crispies. Also the chocolate isn't very flavourful, and there's hardly any toffee! A bit shit compared to how they used to be. Disappointing.

Toffee Crisp is one of the more annoying ones because the bite height was crucial to the way the bar felt in your mouth. You got a good, high crunch. I'd rather they'd made it shorter length-wise. Double Decker is another one ruined like this. And they're not cheap; in the mid 90s you could get a chocolate bar for 25p. Now one is 85p in my local One Stop. Salaries haven't tripled and then some. I try and tell myself the cocoa farmers are getting more money. I hope I'm right...

Absolutely 💯, wtf have they done to Rolos, they taste nothing like they used to. Gutted.

They are no longer allowed to be called chocolate I don't think. I used to love them but wouldn't touch one of the filthy modern ones.

Here is Tesco's list of toffee crisp ingredients: utter filth and should be illegal to sell such utter shit that's no good for anyone. I say this as a chocolate lover!

Sugar, Vegetable Fats (Palm, Coconut, Shea, Sunflower), Glucose-Fructose Syrup, Rice Flour, Sweetened Skimmed Condensed Milk (Skimmed Milk, Sugar, Lactose (Milk)), Whey Powder Product (Milk), Whole Milk Powder, Cocoa Mass, Wheat Flour, Fat-Reduced Cocoa Powder, Emulsifier (Lecithins), Salt, Natural Flavouring

That's because it's not actually chocolate anymore.

Yuck. I did suspect they might not be proper choc any more.

I see piles and piles of "chocolate" stacked up in shops for christmas. I wish nobody would buy any of it. All of it has been cheapened and ruined and is now really, really bad for you. I will be hunting down some decent chocolate. I think M&S do have some.

God thats rubbish

Agreed. The Tony's milk chocolate bar with puffed rice and caramel has something of the spirit of toffee crisp about it too, though obviously the texture and balance are different.
