What would you know?

You probably think a Tic Tac is the same as a Jila mint.

Hey! I’m discerning when it comes to all things confectionery. I’m also an expert on such. For example: I predicted Hubba Bubba would be the VHS of bubblegum and Spurt would go the way of Betamax. And I was right!

Although, not gonna lie… I preferred Spurt over Hubba Bubba.

I still remember the old Bazookas.

I had to Google it. Apparently there was a Bazooka Joe comic strip in each packet (?) Pretty impressive, if true. Also, the consensus appears to be that you could blow “ginormous” bubbles. Again, impressive. 

Gotta say, Pat Cummins is an outstanding cricketer, captain and sporting ambassador !!!

You would probably prefer a " chocolate flake" over a "scorched peanut bar."

Yes, that a man would like the dainty, constantly falling apart and disintegrating "flake ".

Next you will probably tell me you prefer Maltesers over Clinkers.

What's a Clinker?

Are you from Mars?

Its an oval shaped chocolate, with a hard, fruit flavoured, tingly centre.

Yep!

PS: The only thing that comes close to a Flake in terms of awesomeness is a Twirl, which is basically a Flake with skin (a coating of deliciousness in the form of more chocolate). End of debate.

Or is a Flake actually a Twirl with the skin peeled off. Probably while it was still alive. Have you ever heard chocolate screaming? Why do you think the Oompa Loompas keep their ears covered?

Choose cruelty free confectionery.

Also, Hugh Laurie would have been a much better Oompa Loompa than Hugh Grant for the recent prequel remake cash-in thing.

We used to have a game where you guessed the colour inside before you bite the end off.
