    Oh great. Now I want British wafer bars. And snowballs! I need snowballs! Note to self: stay out of British threads.

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    American candy is the best 🤣🤣🤣 but sometimes we can never get it
    Although my husband orders from candy Mail so it’s great I get to taste a bit of American candy 😝😝😝

    I’m glad I don’t have the money to actually fly to America…because I would be coming back like Santa Claus 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Galaxy chocolate, Tunnock's caramel wafers, Dairy Milk fruit & nut...

    At least it's easy to avoid chocolate in the US, because it's such garbage in comparison.

    *hugs* I know. Though to be honest, Dairy Milk is *kitten* (not as bad as average US chocolate, but within the EU it would not be allowed to be called chocolate because it contains too little cocoa). Black and Green is somewhat better... Damn, now I want to book the cheap-ish flight to London I saw adverts for, even though I can't get my total love/nemesis there: Mackies haggis and cracked black pepper crisps!

    Oh, there's plenty of good stuff. But probably not at places like convenience stores.

    I've been meaning to visit the Taza factory in Boston. This Mexican stone-ground chocolate has a really interesting texture and flavor.

    It makes a good gift, which is how I was introduced to it: https://www.amazon.com/Chocolate-Mexicano-Classic-Collection-Certified/dp/B00ANV9GZQ/

    On the other end of the spectrum, I found Icelandic Chocolate at Whole Foods, which is also quite good, but very different. It's $4.99 in the store, and perhaps you can get similar pricing from Amazon if you go through Whole Foods; not sure how to do that. Giving this link as an example, not as a recommendation as where to buy.

    70%: https://www.amazon.com/Noi-Sirius-Icelandic-Chocolate-Bars/dp/B07CH156CV/
    56%: https://www.amazon.com/Noi-Sirius-Icelandic-Chocolate-Bars/dp/B07CH5NJNJ/
