It's thoroughly annoying, isn't it. Chocolate is a disappointment everywhere else.nodnirG kraM wrote:Never buy it outside this country: it's a completely different recipe. As they say in The Regina Monologues (when the Simpsons come to London), British chocolate is sweeter than the crap they have elsewhere.
Same with Diet Coke which is manky from anywhere but Uxbridge. More annoying is that the Euro "Coka Cola Lite" versions are all over the shelves of independent shops across Britain because it is presumably cheaper to buy in than home produced UK stuff. Carbon footprint, anyone?
But I digress..
