    Can we at least agree that Milky Ways are the best candy bars

    Or have we fallen that far as a society

    Milky Way Dark are the best non-crunchy candy bars. That's all I can give you.

    I didn't think candy bars would have their own snobs but

    Here we are

    You were being snobbish about candy bars earlier so

    My favorite candy bar is Snickers, that's the opposite of snobbish

    It's like the equivalent of saying Burger King has the best burgers or something

    I don't go in for the fancy chocolates because mostly the only difference I can really taste is the drain on my wallet

    Wha. A snickers bar has crunch! It has nuts in it! Which are crunchy!

    Up to Shenmue ep 7. I can hear their fatigue setting in. And Dan apparently has no idea how the Mafia works.

    Not at all! Chewy, definitely. Chunky. There's no brittle crunch to it though. I've never once heard that awful crispy "crunch" sound when biting into one

    Man

    I'm gonna go buy a bag of fun size Snickers like right now, 2 AM be damned

    EDIT: Shit, just realized this is totally the GB thread and we are waaaay off topic. Final word on the subject: Snickers is best candy bar for me, followed closely by Cadbury bars. Milk chocolate for life. Fuck dark chocolate, fuck a cookie crunch. Mint things are nice (love York and Junior Mints) so really gonna hope that the store has that Aero Mint tomorrow when I go to pick one up

    I agree with UV that Snickers does not count as a crunchy candy bar.

    Coffee Crisp is actually amazing it is true.

    I only know this because a friend of mine has a Canadian girlfriend whom he visits weekly.

    Vinny is such a dad. Like when he had to think up random songs he sang all kid songs. There's so many times where he sounds like a dad explaining things/lying to his kid when talking to Dan.

    If you go to a store with a bulk section, with like grains and candies, you'll often find peanut butter malted milk balls. Several of our nicer markets have them. And mint ones, too!

    like you know chocolate bars are shit in the USA right? Hershey's fucked over your entire country with bad chocolate.

    also Mint Aero's are the best chocolate bar, this isn't even a debate.

    fuck yeah

    I'm always a little jealous when my sister-in-law comes back from England with a bag of imported chocolate. I mean, I don't need chocolate, but they all look so good. Also, I want to try a KitKat that's "better" because US KitKats are pretty great. If the UK has even better ones then I wanna try it.

    man what, "fancy gourmet chocolate" lol.

    No, my point is the literal shitty chocolate bars you get at the grocery store are a million times better in Canada and the UK than in the USA. nothing fancy about it.

    Hooray, a US vs UK beer discussion

    As a real ale snob, some of the best beers I've had have been in America

    That doesn't preclude mass-produced US beers being boring, or Blue Moon tasting like somebody poured baked bean juice into a Fanta and left it behind a radiator for a week

    We also have crappy beer in the UK

    Yeah, the US has an absolutely mind-boggling variety of beers these days, many of which are super tasty and as strong or light as you could want. It just so happens that the most popular brands are the pisswater you always end up hearing about.

    What is about Blue Moon that is bad? Is it that it's a light beer? Or am I missing out and there are way better light beers out there?

    It is the taste

    It is a bad-tasting beer

    I don't know if it is a light beer or not; all I know is that it has a taste that is highly offensive in a way that very few beers can manage

    At least Bud and Coors aren't aggressively bad, just bland

    Blue Moon isn't aggressively bad or anything. It isn't a watered down half-beer like Bud and Coors are. It's a wheat beer thing.

    Turns out lots of beer has lots of different tastes and people's tastebuds prefer different stuff.

    There's no weird beer thing in the US like how chocolate tastes like vomit.

    From the hershey chocolate wiki:
    The process is a trade secret, but experts speculate that the milk is partially lipolyzed, producing butyric acid, which stabilizes the milk from further fermentation. This flavor gives the product a particular sour, "tangy" taste which the US public has come to associate with the taste of chocolate, to the point that other manufacturers often add butyric acid to their milk chocolates.


    Also the Shenmue endurance run is amaaaazing.

    I use the Pocket Casts app which I think is available on everything? It costs money once, but it syncs your progress too so I really like the ability to listen on my phone, and then when I get to work I use the web browser version to keep listening where I left off.
