Disappointing food, particularly chocolate.

Carrying on from the general agreement that we're seriously fucked off that Milk Way magic stars are not little star shaped milky ways but in fact just bloody chocolate, what have you been disappointed by, food wise, when they first came out ?
Cadbury Heroes. Mmmmm me thinks. Mini chocolate bars. Mini topic, mini bournville, mini crunchie. No, not mini crunchie. Ball of chocolate with all the bits in that fell off the fucking crunchie making conveyor belt.
Ditto Celebrations. No giant Malteser, just bit's off the floor in chocolate.
Tizer Ice. Was supposed to 'taste cold' when warm. Tastes like anti-freeze when cold or warm.
Golden Nuggets. My favourite when i was a kid. Over loaded with sugar and colouring and proper rough, just blown apart by dynamite, boulders. Now pale, insipid crappy little balls that don't go chewy in the milk like they used to.

I am quite partial to a whispa bar still though :chin:
In terms of chocolate, I think Green & Blacks is still quite a safe bet?
My major disappointment though is that all of my old favourites are smaller now than they used to be - Curly Wurly, Mars Bars etc
I remember that. I only bought it once just to try and never bought it again.
Mine would have to be that nestle krave. One of the most sickly cereals I've ever tasted. Coca Cola with lime was a let down too.

Heroes are naff. Chocolate eclairs. WTF!
Still totally addictive, of course...
Southern Hemisphere chocolate is horrid (Australia/Singapore, anyway, it has something in it to make it melt less quickly) and so is anything made by Hershey's.
Oh god yeh. My mums friend from america brought a load over when she came to visit. Horrible chocolate!:yuck:
That's true, but it's also not real chocolate.
100% agree. The recipe on Heinz soup has completely changed, as has their Oxtail.
Fanta's recipe changed about 6-8 years back and they took all the sugar and flavourings out - it tastes like ass now. You can still get proper Fanta abroad, though!
Hooper's Hooch tasted, quite literally, of piss. :yuck:
Pop some new ones in old man.
They are still all mine :thumb:

Same here thankfully. I have a proper fear of losing teeth. Weird.
Probably help that I don't liek chocolate.
I used to love King Size Mars Bars
