Ah Big Turk.


Hey let's make the crappiest chocolate bar ever and see if anyone buys it.

Forgot about Crunch bars. Pretty plain, but loved the texture as a kid.

One I don't like is Crunchie, that texture after the first couple of chews is awful.

And even then they have to be 100% fresh. We have crunchie in our work vending machine that gets replenished very sparingly. Most bars are fine, but a non-fresh crunchie bar just dissolves into a dusty mess upon contact.

Oh man, that Crispy Crunch vs. Crunchie matchup is like the Oilers vs. Ducks. Both awful, awful, awful, and you hope whoever wins gets destroyed the next round.

It sucks that some matchups are crap vs crap and others are awesome vs awesome.

the Skor vs Toblerone and Twix vs Bounty matchups are absolute bs! definitely reminds me of first round of NHL Playoffs.



All of these are absolute beasts imo.

Are you kidding me? Were you born as a senior citizen? The only people I know that like those cherry abominations are those with false teeth.

Gross! lol!

Skor vs Toblerone in round 1 was borderline psychopathic.

Big Turks are great - when you're 14.

A fresh Crunchie is one of my favourite bars. An old one is absolutely disgusting.

I really enjoy this idea, but Brent Krahn's incessant rambling is ruining even this bit of fun.

As a kid, yep. Always have been a sucker for chocolate and cherries. Black Forest Cake especially.

Well looks like my first round was good. Everything except the Mars v. EatMore faceoff.

I could've written either of your posts. I love cherries and chocolate and black forest cake. I eat those Cherry Blossoms fairly often because I've got family members who know that I love them and they pick them up for me when they find them out and about.

I’ve never tried one because the only time I had an opportunity I thought the packaging looked like it was 40 years old. I didn’t even think they made them anymore.

Gonna be some good chocolate bars going home after the second round. Was tough to vote against Skor, Mars, Snickers, and Aero. They are definitely more worthy to make it through vs. srubs like Crispy Crunch and the Peanut Butter cups.

Well it's super sweet cherry and mediocre chocolate. I've just always liked them, but they're not really great (I also will never admit that to my wife!)
