Best & Worst Chocolate Bars
A spin-off of the Mulroney thread.
Best and Worst Chocolate bars:
I've always been a big fan of Dairy Milk, and Zero.
That said, there are very few chocolate bars that I do not like.
In terms of the worst:
- Big Turk
- Green Tea Kit Kat
And to settle the debate from the other thread: Eatmore bars are awesome.

I like Butterfinger. They seem to be less easily available than Snickers, Aero, etc.
I hate Bounty.

it's astonishing to think that there are people out there who took the divine delight of traditional Turkish Delight—amazing stuff—and somehow managed to concoct the absolute worst, flavourless jelly substance imaginable, dunk it in brown paraffin wax, and had the audacity to label it as Turkish Delight. Simply unbelievable.

I'm curious. He certainly hypes these up.

Far from worst, but I've never understood Aero
It's just milk chocolate with holes in it

Dairy MilK - great
Jersey Milk - decent
Hershey - average at best
Eat-More, not really a chocolate bar in my opinion, but amazing in its own right. Might have to have taste buds older than 15 to appreciate it though.

Alright I'll attempt to narrow down my top 5, but will need the cop-out of some honorable mentions
Wunderbar
Oh Henry
Eat-more
Twix
Crispy Crunch
HM: Coffee Crisp, Skor, Mr Big
Does Reese count? It's not in bar form so I guess not. Great stuff though

I'm gonna get absolutely slammed here, but I think Bounty (yeah I love fake coconut, fight me) Wunderbar and Butterfinger are the best.
The worst is Aero. Who the #### pays full price for one of those? It's half air, literally. Half your money is going to air.

Oh Henry the best, then snickers. That said, Kit Kat probably the one I have the most- mostly thanks to the mini ones that seem to show up everywhere.
There are no really bad ones, but I guess Mars hasn’t aged well for me.

Turkish delight is the self-mortification of candy. It lacks enjoyable colour, flavour or texture. Just terrible in every way.

This is difficult…
Top 3: Dairy Milk, Toblerone, Côte d’Or (last one is hard to find in Calgary)
Middle of the pack: Kit Kat, Snickers, Mars
Way too many at the meh level

I think Crispy Crunch is probably my favorite. Skor, Snickers, and original Kit Kat also rank.
Worst is probably Coffee Crisp. Dry, thin chocolate, mostly flavourless

Fruit and nut (dairy milk with raisins and almonds)
Toblerone (and their fruit and nut version is awesome)
I also like the occasional Mars bar.
Guilty pleasure. Crunchie (sponge toffy)

I was completely blown away when we went to turkey and hit our first shop for real Turkish Delight. Couldn’t get enough of it. Have to think the makers of the chocolate bar assumed no one would ever know what they made has no semblance of Turkish Delight.
