Chocolate, chocolate everywhere....

Recently, I found a bar of Cadbury's Milk Chocolate in my house, and I opened it. I don't know whether you've ever had Cadbury's before, but it's an English chocolate by this dude named George Cadbury (I think anyways....it's been away). Eating English chocolate has reminded of a lot of English (well, British) candy that are non-existant here in the States.

I've come to the odd conclusion that American candy just can't match up with British sweets.
Um...meaning no offense of course, I mean, I'll accept Hershey's and Reese's as much as any other person, but there's something about Cadbury's....maybe it's because there's so many different varieties out there.

Maybe you're right, but there used to be some pretty good American candy and cookies that don't exist anymore. Like hydrox. Does anyone out there remember hydrox? They're like oreos, but much better. By the way, speaking of international candy, I would advise you not to eat a Kinder Riegel. A Kinder Egg, on the other hand, is fun.

I love Kinder Egg. I don't think I ever had a Riegel before. Are those the hippo thingys...?
Hydrox????

A Kinder Riegel is some kind of bar made with soft fake chocolatey stuff, with a weird white filling. If it had real chocolate and a nice creamy filling, I would like it. But as it is...

I don't remember anything about hippos, but maybe they have a mascot?

Oh...I have not had that.
I dunno, there was this hippo Kinder thing out a couple years ago. But it was a while ago...

Oh, that's what those things are? (Meaning the Kinder Riegel, not the hippo things). I don't think Kinder Riegel had a hippo mascot, but I suppose it's possible...
