Favorite Chocolate Bar
So, I'm sitting here eating a Kit-Kat (not the Chunky variety), and I was wondering what my favorite chocolate bar is. It's definitely not this POS Kit-Kat. I'm not enjoying this treat one bit. It's all melty and stuck to the package. Stupid child laborers can't even put my chocolate bar together right.
Anyways. When I'm in a simple mood, I prefer Mr. Big bars. Lots of bar, it's light, doesn't hurt my gaping cavities too much, and it's good for jokes. I mean, who hasn't made a Mr. Big joke? If you really want to push the PC boundaries, try including a Big Turk in there.
Then, when I'm in a more sophisticated mood, perhaps when I'm sitting at Starbucks sipping on my $10 Latte, I prefer a Caramilk. It's very sweet, filled with caramel, and the package makes me think I'm a rich Englishman from the Victorian era.
What about you? (Yes, you). Feel free to include a spin-off of a known chocolate bar (such as the aforementioned Kit-Kat Chunky), or even some exotic, unknown chocolate bar from the wastelands of central Africa.

I like Aero (regular or mint) or Jersey Milk. I like milk chocolate.

I don't fata. Just adding content.
There is a "favorite [blank]" thread for just about anything.

One word: Lawyer. 
My top three chocolate bars are:
1. Big Turk
2. After Eight (the chocolate bar)
3. Crunchy Peanut Butter Cups
Actually, the order changes depending on my mood... but it's very rare I ever stray outside those three. When I do, it's usually a Kit Kat or Coffee Crisp.

Meh, I prefer to use the American term "candy bar" when referring to things like Mr. Big and Oh Henry. Not what I consider chocolate.
My two favourites are the Milka white + dark mixed bar and the Milka milk-yogurt bar, but pretty much anything by Lindt or Milka rocks.

I go through chocolate bar moods. Some days, I'll want a Wunderbar and on other days, a 3 Musketeers. I also enjoy the occasional Junior Mint because they are a refreshing treat. I do a miss a chocolate bar called Choclair from back in the 90s. I was a fan.
However, when push comes to shove...Oh Henry wins out every time. And when I feel being more posh, Milka or Lindt

I used to hate Big Turks when I was little, because my Mom used to always have them, but as I got older I started to really like them. There's something so appealing about the chocolate coating on that jelly interior. How could you find it disgusting? Bounty Bars are disgusting, not Big Turks (where did they get the name Big Turk, anyways)!

Oh Henry FTW. Ya got yer chocolate, yer peanuts, and yer white fudge-like substance. Plus it's bigger than a standard bar.
I also like Crispy Crunch, Reese's PB Cups and Big Turks. I'll only eat a chocolate bar maybe a couple times a year, though, so when I eat one I'll stretch it out over as long a time as possible.

Have you ever tried the British equivelants of these things? Some of them are rose flavoured, it's like eating a bar of soap. Weird.

Any chocolate bar will do when you go to High River.
A good practical joke - throw a couple of Oh Henrys in the swimming pool.

Erroneous! Bounty Bars eaten sparingly are awesome. The last time I had a Big Turk was when I was 12 or 13 so that might be why I hold them with such contempt. And is the name because they're 'based' on Turkish Delight?

Mr. Goodbar and Krackle.
These need to be made into full sized chocolate bars and sold regularly.

I think it's named after Turkish Delight.

The only good thing about a Bounty Bar is that they are split in two. That's a great invention, and I think every chocolate bar should follow that. So much easier to eat if you don't want the WHOLE thing, you just want a bite or two.
