Cadbury’s Dairy Milk.
Solid, old school chocolate with ‘great melting’.
Currently ranked number ONE in a poll of the 41 best chocolate bars in Ireland.
Via Balls.ie:
Given that today is the start of Lent many Irish people will be embarking on one last gorge of chocolate eating before giving it up for 40 days. But what bar should you choose for this last soirée? It’s time to decide on the best bar in Ireland [voting at link below]!
FIGHT!
The 41 Best Chocolate Bars in Ireland (Balls.ie)
Eh, did Lent not begin today there, scobes?
I don’t start Lent on the first day of Lent like some sort of pleb. I get a sneaky lock-in at the newsagent so I can really do some damage. What mark on my head? Oh that’s chocolate. Where’s yours?
My god the readers of ball.ie are peasants !
41 chocolate bars and not a mention of green & blacks.
which is really Cadburys. You uninformed peasant.
This has to be the most juvenile post ever.
Used to be a truly great bar.
It’s gone to the dogs in recent years.
Gritty, sugary, nasty poo.
But enough about Grogans.
Ha!
that might be a case of being a wee bit misty eyed for days past….
2 things to know about Cadbury Milk “Chocolate”
1. It’s not made like you think it is, Cadbury invented an ingenious process to aid production for so called milk chocolate – they use the normal constituent parts of proper chocolate to produce something called Chocolate Crumb. That stuff is used to make the items you buy on the shelf
2. They are owned by Kraft and therefore to be avoided if you value your innards ;)
right you are.chocolate should contain 50% cacao solids to be called chocolate. Dairy Milk et al have about 20% .
Cadburys = Vegelate

If your giving up stuff for Lent or doing something then you would recognise that today Ash Wednesday is a day of fast and abstinence so gorging on chocolate wont be done. This post should have been put up yesterday.
Balls.ie – that says it all….
It was
Chocolate bars these days are mank because of Kraft and also smaller because of the price of cocoa and health concerns
its always been mank i.e. this isn’t a Kraft inspired mankiness but I’m sure given time Kraft will introduce some cheese-in-a-can type processing innovation to keep the improvements coming
‘Now with cinnamon.’
I’ll have a Topic please.
Followed by a Starbar.
And for desert with tea, a purple Snack…. Topic is king in Clamperland!
I’ll second the Topic choice, but I’d go purple snack (eating chocolate off it first) in second place followed by a Fry’s Chocolate Cream.
I had a Fry’s Chocolate Cream a couple of years ago on the train with a bunch of lads heading off to a stag, I knew the stag but none of his mates…. they called me Grandad for the remainder of the weekend :)
Good times !
Don’t mind them. They were just jealous.
Coconut boost.
God damn it.

I know. Apparently the make-your-own Trocaire boxes are still around.
The nuns used to call them ‘black baby boxes’.
Bad times.
