[Jane]

Feel better vibes for DR George!!!  I am fighting a cold and this would be a very inconvenient time for me to have one, not that any time is good but this would complicate certain commitments. 

[Jane]

DR Singdaw, cute kitty and whatever that cat bag is

[Jane]

Wow, DR FJL - what fantastic news!   CONGRATULATIONS!!  Best wishes to you and your company when the awards are awarded!

DITTO & DITTO!!

Big Hunk, Abba-Zaba and Look, all are still delicious IMHO.  I find it easier to eat Big Hunk bars from the freezer and then cracking it into little pieces.  When I was young the Abba-Zaba was my favorite followed by a Look bar.  Now I think I like the Big Hunk best along with the Abba-Zaba.

Butterfingers were my favorite candy bar.

My current favorite candy bar is an extra thick milk chocolate Lindt bar.  I'm not even sure they still sell them in the US.  I used to find them in Duty Free shops at the airport.  Since developing GERD Lindt milk chocolate bothers me so I compromise with treating myself at Easter time to the Lindt Bunny's.  While not completely thick & solid parts of them are.

They still sell these here. I've seen them at easter time.

[Jennifer]

Do you have Lindt stores in the US?  There are a few here and they obviously sell the bunnies there.

[Jennifer]

I have never heard of Big Hunk, Abba-Zaba or Look. Are they chocolate bars?

Also, is it common to call chocolate candy?  Because I don't think of them as the same thing.

My favorite chocolates are: Reese's pieces and peanut butter cups, crunchie, peanut butter M&Ms.

But do they sell the super large, extra thick bars?

I can get the bunnies.  It is the BIG bars I don't see anymore.

There was a time you couldn't get Lindt here.  Bryan was 5 & Craig 3 when Keith took a trip to Switzerland for business and all I wanted him to get me was Lindt milk chocolate.  Someone talked him into buy Belgian chocolates/truffles for me instead.  I almost cried and I was unreasonably upset.  I really ranted about him buying me something I didn't like when I had been soooo looking forward to my milk Lindt chocolate.

He brought the boys home a Lindt bar with hazelnuts, yes hazelnuts.  You could get an American made Lindt bar but it wasn't very good which why they stopped selling them.  I bought one of those and had Keith compare the taste to the bar he brought the boys.  He then felt bad he didn't get me what I wanted after realizing the difference.  I did nibble a little of the chocolate around the whole nuts, nut too close, but just enough to get a taste.  I couldn't resist.

I'm up, I'm up.  Yes, the same exact thing happened - awoke one hour after falling asleep, but thankfully this time I fell back asleep by four so I got a little under eight hours although it doesn't feel like it.

Congrats to all nominees and sellouts.

[Jane]

DR Jennifer, chocolate is made into candy and I consider chocolate, if in a candy shape, to be candy.  I also eat chocolate bits for baking as candy so I get why you don't think of it as candy.

For candy bars, I love Reece's, which have a wonderful artificial flavor, and Heath bars. But as I cut back on my sugar intake, I find Heath bars too sweet.
