When I get fat I am going to blame you Goatboy ! Another great link - lots of stuff on there I remember but forgot about.
I vaguely remember another chocolate but cannot remember what it was called. It had a bright green crunchy mint center covered with dark chocolate (I think), and was quite flat in shape (similar to a Daim bar). Anyone else remember it ?

Now that sounds interesting ! Is it just ice cream with Butterfinger broken in to it, or is it more complex ?

That's pretty close. It's soft-serve ice cream with the Butterfinger sbroken and swirled into it with a blender.

I'll answer this one, Hard core gamers tend to spend a long time looking at gamesites / communities. Energy drinks and candy bars (note to America Candy is hard, chocolate is soft) are a common topic and a lot of UK gamers want them, I have been to a Game Shack (MMO's, and PnP RPG an Table top games) and they sell lot's of US import stuff such as Bawls, Hershy bars, etc

It's a good side line for them to have stop by to pick up a chocolate bar or ten and also pick up a GPU, head set, flavour of the month mouse etc.

I'd be up for a swap of maybe something bushy? You're not far from me.

Before anyone jumps on the bandwagon ... no i can't get any more. These were a gift from some US friends at christmas.

PM me if you're interested?

Cheers

Yes it was a mint Cracknel ! Now youve reminded me about Texan bars. I loved them as well.

Hi Perrari,

Was it a Mint Cracknel? https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=mint+cracknel&hl=en&tbo=u&tbm=isch&source=univ&sa=X&ei=H_kTUfmkG-WX1AWJlIDgBg&ved=0CDQQsAQ&biw=1366&bih=712

Forum talk of it here http://www.aquarterof.co.uk/wordpress/category/whatever-happened-to/mint-cracknell/

They were nice, and yes there's a forum for old sweeities. You should see the stuff about Texan bars! Were back for a while but gone again.
