When fresh, Eat-More is hands down #1.





Here is a list of the top 20 Chocolate Bars in Canada
That's the go-to for hiking/fishing. It's barely passable otherwise, but they holdup well in your bag.

I said my take would be unpopular! But if you are going to post that, you should at least name your favorite bars, so you can be judged too.

But when they melt, it is a big mess.

My grandma used to bring a skor bar with her to picnics at Sylvan lake.

That's the scenario you're in when you say skor bar is in your top 3. Your grandson is helping you in and out of the family van and you're using them as currency.

Today I learned troutman is an old lady.

Peanut butter has no business mixing with chocolate. Peanut butter isn't a treat; it's what you put on toast if you've run out of milk for your cereal.

Fair.

If I’m grabbing a bar without thinking it’s a Twix with a Snickers or Coffee Crisp fighting each other sometimes.

Alternate short list includes: Reese’s Cups, Eat-More, Oh Henry. Outside contenders: Kit-Kat, Wonderbar.

I like Crispy Crunch and Butterfinger, but my teeth cry tears of enamel for days if I eat one. Maybe once every few years.

I thought Big Turk would upset people more than Skor.

“Only somebody who really takes the time to understand Skor's potential can then coax it into its fullest expression. Then, I mean, oh its flavors, they're just the most haunting and brilliant and thrilling and subtle and... ancient on the planet.”

Yeah I was definitely judging you on the Big Turk. First I've heard Skor is an old lady chocolate bar.

Anybody like mini Halloween chocolate bars more than their full-sized counterparts? Mini Coffee Crisp, Kit Kat and Aeros are way better than the normal-sized versions.

Speaking of fired up, raise your hand if you've had a melt down outside a Mac's in July after your eatmore melted to the wrapper and you're pulling yellow wrapper shards off a peanut-poo chocolate bar with sticky gross hands.

It’s definitely a good excuse to crush like 6 in a row.

You can buy mini-bite versions of many chocolate bars at the grocery store. How many mini-bites equal the original bar?

I remember having a Big Turk at a hockey rink as a young lad. I was always curious, but for some reason stayed away. Probably because I never saw it advertised or anyone eating one ever, so I was wary. For some reason this day I decided to take the leap. I took a bite. The rest went in the trash. Never again.

Crunchie? What in the blue hell is that yellow brick thing made of? I haven’t tried one in a while maybe I’ll give a mini one a go. I remember wondering why someone would choose that over all the other options.

Skor is just a bit too rich for me. Can be nice though.

Mini's can be hit and miss. The KitKats and Coffee Crisp are awesome but the Aero is a waxy abomination. I swear they use all the reject chocolate and nuts and everything for some of the Halloween bars.

And shut yer gob about Peanut Butter and chocolate. You probably eat black licorice for a treat.

I don't associate skor bars with old people. They only came out in '83. Most chocolate bars have a way longer heritage.

Mounds or Milky Way feel like old Old People Chocolate Bars to me.

I'm an Aero guy myself. Not the most 'complicated' of bars, but brings me immense happiness each time.

Those are the chocolate bars I buy the most every Halloween so I can have the leftovers.

Try the Aero balls in the pouch in the candy aisle at the supermarket. They somehow hit on the perfect size of aero and is undoubtedly the best format for aeros ever developed.
