You need to update your top ten, fella. That Snickers one t'other day broke into the list with a 9.0, but it's not showing up yet. (Unless you're not allowed to count two versions of the same bar, in which case it's as you were.)

Legend!! Completely slipped my mind!!

It is an absolute shocking top ten .... it is all over the place I have no idea how to split it up

Milk / White / Dark ???

Mass Consumer / Premium ???

It is a complete joke

Have you reviewed Freddo?

You should have a 10 which is just the highest scoring bars (as you do) and then have separate lists elsewhere - perhaps one for premium, and one for each of milk, white and dark. But then you'd have a hard time with some which are a mix of two!

Ooh, surprise!

I *love* this site. I think this is one of the best things that a forumite from GRcade and by extension GR has ever produced. Genuinely. I find it fascinating.

Yeah, it's a genuine niche. A proper gap in the market that needed to be filled. Massive kudos to laggyjim.

Cheers for the kind words lads ... it is a nice little hobby I like having bubbling away; its amazing the amount of interest it gets .. it seems that one people have seen the site once they do indeed check back quite regularly to catch the latest goings on.

It seems as if a lot of companies are now taking a pretty active interest as well ... I am being offered samples from all over the place - it is getting a bit hard to keep up with demand!! Best thing is that they keep sending too many of each item so I have a few spare knocking around ... which means Im gonna have to run another competition to get rid of them all Riesen, Lion White Bars, Lindt bars, Kinder Country bars a-go-go very soon!

In regards to my top ten predicament - Canton I like your thinking im gonna try put something like that together this evening if I get the time.

Anyway cheers for being so nice again guys! Much appreciated!

Om nom nom nom. WANT.

The top rated bars section is now just a joke .... last two days ...two new entries

I disagree with your Kinder Bueno White review.

You base your score on the average of each of the components of the bar but I feel that's missing the point slightly, like the original bar the focus is definitely on the hazelnut filling but the white chocolate makes a nice subtle difference. The powder is clearly purely decorative, and if you're getting it everywhere you must have spacker hands or something.

It certainly brings nothing broadly new to the table that the original Bueno didn't already, but I invite the option.

Fair dos ... like I say it is only my opinion ... only worth as much as every one else's!!
