Yorkies?

[elaby]

A question for our British friends:

We visited a British imported goods store last weekend because they're the only place around where we can find McVitie's digestive biscuits (thank you, kniblet and dibsy for introducing us to this delicacy!) and we came across a chocolate bar called Yorkies which proclaims "This is not for girls!" Naturally, taking this as a challenge, we bought one.

It tastes, as far as I can tell, like a regular, no-frills chocolate bar.

So what's the boy-only-ness?

supposed to be too chunky for girls.

It's not even particularly nice chocolate. Go for Dairy Milk instead. Much nicer. :-)

Like... it's in big chunks, chunky? Because it certainly wasn't FULL of chunks (of something besides chocolate) or anything.

I'll try that next time! I thought the Yorkie bar was okay, but I wasn't stunned :)

yeah, the chunks of chocolate are pretty big, compared to a regular chocolate bar.

I'd eat one, but only if I was totally out of decent chocolate, and I wouldn't choose one if presented with almost any other choice.

Hee :) I see! I was expecting it to have bits of stuff or something like that.

I have just fallen MADLY in love with Cadbury's Eclairs. Going to get a big bag next time we're at that store!

mmm, they're nice.

I should send a chocolate sample next time I send a parcel over!

I'm suddenly feeling like I so fail at being British, because I don't think I know what those are.

*pats* It's okay! They're really yummy :) They're like little caramels with chocolate in the middle.
