Paid Members Carbomb Posted July 17, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted July 17, 2023 I don't eat Lion Bars as often as I should - they are really nice, both original and white chocolate. Haven't had a Toffee Crisp in years, either. Might get one today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members air_raid Posted July 17, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted July 17, 2023 White Lions are brilliant, and I only just now realized I want White Picnic to be a thing. On the topic (LOL) of bars with a bunch of stuff inside, I really miss Fuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not normally a fan of fruit with chocolate (unless it's also loaded with alcohol, like Old Jamaica), but Fuses had the right balance of chocolate, crispy bits, and raisins.

Mr_Danger Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 (edited) Some bell put Starbars and Boost’s on a 2 for £1.20 at the tills in Iceland Food Warehouse and now I have them like 3 times a week. Edited July 17, 2023 by Mr_Danger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathrey Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 I'm not sure about trying the white chocolate Lion Bar. White chocolate is usually very sweet, is it not sickly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White chocolate is usually very sweet, is it not sickly? It comes down to whether or not you like white chocolate or not, really. I have a ridiculous sweet tooth - chocolate, marzipan, baklava, barfi, ras malai, all these are like crack to me - so I like them, but, in fairness, it feels like the crispy bits also tone down the sweetness a little, so it does feel a bit more balanced.

The only issue is they are so small these days (don't) and that annoys me. But a Boost is perfection. And obviously every time I buy one I walk out singing 🎶 BOOST BOOST CADBURYS BOOST🎵 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cousin Jim Bob Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 That reminds me that Ann never actually sent me anything after saying she would 🙁 I will now buy the Aldi Tunnocks ripoffs for the rest of my days out of spite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deathrey Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 (edited) I do have a pretty sweet tooth but I struggle a bit with white chocolate. I only really like Green & Blacks white chocolate, all the others are a little too sweet for me. I love stuff like baklava but can only have it in small amounts or large amounts with a cup of tea. Barfi I draw the line at, it's far too sweet but ras malai is fine because its tempered by the milk.

Fog Dude Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Decades ago, a Boost was my chocolate bar of choice from the vending machine on a Friday (the one day I didn't bring in a packed lunch) but I recall my friend who I was studying A-level German with made a bloody convincing case for a Lion bar as well.
