    Cabana bars were the best chocolate ever. It's a travesty they stopped making it.

    Any Irish chocolate. About a million times better than any other chocolate you can get.

    I’ve heard it’s not as good nowadays right enough, might be because of the change of wrappers? Someone was telling me it was because they’ve changed the milk content but don’t know how true that is.

    Back in the 80s am sure they where called Chelsea bars. Soft chewy strips with a weird chocolate taste,used eat loads on the way home. Turkish delights aswell, dont think av had one in 20 yrs.

    You can buy them from wee sweet shops. Never tried the originals but the one's you can buy are pretty decent.
