    "Only the crumbliest, flakiest chocolate tastes like chocolate never tasted before"? I'll grant that, actually - the texture and construction of Cadbury's Flake does change how it melts and feels in the mouth, so it is unlike other chocolate bars. However, where's the follow up line, which should be "Only the crumbliest, flakiest chocolate, makes a bleedin' mess like no other chocolate before"? 😜

    The 2023 Mars Twix advert "Our smallest ever bar weighing just 12g! gone in one bite our most expensive price yet at £1.99! It doesn't even taste the same it now tastes fake and artificial!"

    That was the creepiest version of the Flake song I’ve ever heard! They certainly don’t taste like chocolate ever tasted before now, I had one recently, it’s not the same. Also, found out they’re made in Egypt now. All the Cadbury bars have gone downhill since they shut the U.K. factories. I bet they’re using cheaper ingredients but the same recipes so they can turn round and claim nothing’s changed.

  • @Matty112uk

    Thanks again Steve. At my primary school there was a early morning break when everyone would get their crisps out. More often than not, mine was a packet of Monster Munch! Who could forget the unmistakable voice of Adrian Edmondson in the Peperami adverts!

    Great to see the Phileas Fogg 'Punjab Airways' advert once again. 😃 Loved it.
    Does a Terry's Chocolate Orange count towards your five portions of fruit a day? 🤔
    And I loved Monster Munch: these were huge bags of crisps back then.

    • @RetroSteveUK
      @RetroSteveUK  Рік тому

      Chocolate orange is two of your five a day strictly speaking - cocoa beans in the chocolate. Beans are a vegetable, right?

    Push Pop the most 90s sweet treat thing ever. I remember them from the early 90s. And you can also save them. ❤ #90sKid
    Peperami it's a bit of an animal was a very clever slogan due to it's double meaning.

    For a long time, I really wanted to try a Terry's Chocolate Orange, but until the last decade, maybe two, you couldn't get them in the US unless you went to the UK or Europe, or you happened to live in a big city with an international food store. I'm always surprised when they don't make a country specific commercial for things like the Push Pop.

    Isn't a walnut whip just called a whip now as the walnut was too expensive? From memory it's also half the height of the original too.

      I got my mum a 6 pack at Christmas and the walnut is back. She gave me one so decided to try the walnut as I usually pick it off,… vile! I’ll continue to pick it off.

      In real terms they've got cheaper but only due to 'shrinkflation'.
      The six chunk yorkie is now a five chunk, for instance.
