I had never eaten chocolate buttons until my 2 GSs introduced me to them and I am now addicted. hmm

What are you addicted to ?

(or about half eaten chocolate - one of those)

Yes. I expect chocolate got in there somewhere. grin

Frys Turkish delight for me. Obviously I am a peasant. The real stuff unless with pistachios is too messy for me. Tesco send us money off for Frys TD. they know our weaknesses.

Can't believe no one has mentioned Lindor yet.

(tho in the absence of pretty much any choc will do me thanks)

For me it has to be dark chocolate and not sickly sweet.

Aldis "Moser Roth" does some fantastic stuff. A dark chili chocolate and over Christmas a special edition bar with a plum and cinnamon filling.

I cannot abide those Guylian Seashells they are far too sweet.

I could get tempted by Liquorish Allsorts despite the fact that they contain gelatine and I am a veggie.

Harribo gums......by the handful blush and Lindor dark chocolate.... And probably just about any chocolate where trying to study sad

I adore liquorice all sorts. And dolly mixtures.

Those kallo thins sound like what I should be eating. It looks Ocado and Waitrose, Anya.

I love those little Cadbury mini-eggs, real Turkish delight and maltesers. I also love dark plain chocolate. But my 'everyday' love is galaxy. I don't actually have it every day, but I would say four nights a week I will have those four cubes. A big bar lasts me for two weeks.

Cari is this the book?

Poundland has Kallo Chocolate Rice Cakes in at the moment smile

I eat the Kallo Rice Cakes too. My favourite is flakes straight from the freezer! blush

Jane Maltesers have gluten in! shock

I have just discovered Co-op's Valentine's Day offering of chocolate love hearts with strawberry yogurt fillings. Fantastic!!!

I was so impressed that Ana said she was addicted to nothing that I decided to go cold turkey and no chocolate has passed my lips today. A little Fox's Glacier Mint did push it's way into my mouth though.smile

kittylester! Thanks for the reminder.

I can eat gluten every few weeks, for the odd meal, and not suffer too badly. I'm saving up for this Saturday. I never thought of maltesers, but I don't eat them very often. It's just as well!

I have to have mini twister ice lollies on my days off chocolate. It's not the same. sad

I wasn't going to have chocolate today but when I was having lunch with a friend, a slice of chocolate roulade somehow found its way onto my plate and I simply couldn't resist. blush
