JumboJET Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 How would you rank these tins of chocolate - and why? Celebrations, Heroes, Quality Street, Roses. Once we have had a few suggestions I will unveil the definitively correct answer. BigJumby Link to comment

Roberto Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Heroes man myself but the strawberry cream from a rises box is sensational. On the topic of chocolate... I miss those secret bars and a snowflake flake. Link to comment
chief_wiggum Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 1/Celebrations.... cause they have Galaxy, Maltesers, Galaxy Caramel and Mars bars 2/Heroes....Cadburys chocolate 3/Roses, bit too many fondant fillings 4/Quality Street, too many hard centres Link to comment

I have amended the thread title to be more representative of the containers used in 2023. Thank you for your input. How would you rank them, Mr Sigh? 1 Link to comment

Heroes are rubbish. Would prefer they were removed from the rankings. Link to comment

sigh Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Never mind ranking incidentals like chocolates what about a poll about crisps - flavours / makes / base ingredient (tatties/corn/maize etc), whether plain or ridged or shapes (monster munch or hoola hoops) - the possibilities are almost endless Link to comment

Ahh, Primary 6 Fond memories - like the time one lassie offered to pull down her drawers and show us her gash, all for the price of 50p - going behind the fold out library in class was always good.

Fair point, although i was a 10 year old laddie at the time. Aye, I just remember the episode(s) as youthful exuberance, the things that mark milestones in your life Ah well, suppose I should consign that to the "never think of that again" escapades, dam you sir, dam you Link to comment
