***Chocolate Bar Championship 2013 Group D***

[TSB]

TWO go through automatically

Group D

Kit Kat Chunky


Its older brother finished third in a tough Group A and will be hoping to sneak in as a lucky loser. Can the Chunkier younger brother out-muscle the competition and go one better?

Oh Henry


American chocolate, on the whole, is far inferior to the European varieties. This looks a good 'un, though. Plenty of US NSCers, but would be a surprise to see this clock up much of the vote. Kudos for a great name.

Curly Wurly


Nostalgia, surely? Nothing yummier for kids, no doubt, but would anyone who'd left their teens behind go and buy a Curly Wurly? Prove me wrong, doubters.

Fruit & Nut


Like the Whole Nut, Fruit & Nut has changed its packaging to appeal to a younger demographic. The jury's out on whether it has worked, so consider this to be a true experiment of its popularity amongst the masses.

Reese's Nutrageous


Second American entry of the Group. Reese's pieces & peanut butter cups have achieved good things in Blighty, but does the Nutrageous have what it takes to compete with: Snickers, Toffee Crisp and the like?

 

[TSB]

Milka & Daim


Gwarn the Milka! Scandinavian chocolate with Daim pieces inside. It's a little bar, but fills a big hole. And I nominated it, so it's clearly the best. Now: watch it fail.

Kit Kat Chunky for me. Curly Wurly was a very close second however.

EDIT: Damnit, you put the Milka in later; i've already voted :/

Sort the milka and Daim picture out!!! Unfair advantage!

 

[jakarta]

Not bothered about stupid name and fancy packaging, just what I would enjoy eating, so it has to be Fruit and Nut.

Sorry!!!

Only allowed five pictures per post, so has to have a follow-up one. Hopefully won't have hindered its chances too much...

What a pi$$ poor group.

I'd like to see the seedings on this, there's something dodgy going on.

I was just about to rage against the seedings !

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Everyone's a fruit and nut case.

 

[Stat Brother]

You mark my words, someone's put a large amount of cash on Chunky Kit Kat, winning outright.

I bet it gets a soft ride through to the final, where it will be up against lard, or something like that.

Snickers & Crunchie will be kept apart, as they were last years finalists. Not sure how you'd judge seedings for the rest (and yes I know you're both taking the piss)

You've got:-

Chunky Kit Kat (Spain)
Curly Wurly (Greece)
Then San Marino, Andorra, Liechtenstein, and The Faroe Islands, all in the same group.
Scotchland could qualify from group D.

I'm getting a bit worried about this. There WILL be a group with the Star Bar in it, right? Anyway, this is an odd little group, accommodating two bars I've never heard of, being Oh Henry () and NutRageous (). With regard to these two, give it up, read my lips - "WE.ALREADY.HAVE.THE.STAR.BAR". Okay, next up, Chunky Kit Kat is a compressed kit kat. If you're impressed by that, by all means give it your vote. It's just a wafer with a chocolate envelope. Curly Wurly next: can't vote for this because it was a metre long when I was six, now it's the length of a gerbil. If you want to pull your fillings out and buy a product that is 50% air, this one's for you. Daim is nice, Milka is a reputable brand. Put them together and you have a reliable session bar. Daim quantities CAN be disappointing though. Fruit and Nut is a canny operator - contains one of your five a day, plus the presence of the nut nudges it towards "superfood" status. Chocolate quality is good - none of this "cocoa-based" pretension. Fruit and Nut has it, but they're all on Death Row - mint Aero and Star Bar final seems inevitable.

Seriously. Milka should be strolling this. Greece will be appalled by comparison to Curly Wurly.

 

[CorgiRegisteredFriend]

I am going for Curly Wurly. The best of a poor group. Not to be eaten straight from the fridge though- unless you want bits of chocolate all over your clothes.

 

[MissGull]

Always fruit and nut for me. The combination of raisin and chocolate is a winner. Wouldn't miss the nut though.

 

[Deleted member 18477]

Who the hell eats curly wurlys and fruit and nut? Awful chocolate bars! Dire!

Milka should be strolling this along with kit Kay CHUNKY!
