Can you get these Chocolate bars in the states?

[HEyHEY]

Coffee Crisp
Nestle Crunch
Aero
My buddy told me that you can't is it true?

[phaseolus]

1. Sure you can.

There's some mint Aero bars in my freezer.

Of course, my wife's friend in Kingston-upon-Hull, England has to ship them to us, they're not available in stores.

BTW -- I was in Rochester, NY last week, and wondered what country I was in for a second when I drove past a Tim Horton's...

[HEyHEY]

4. wow

SO IT'S TRUE!Gold old Kingston up on hull, I walked on Lake Ontario there once.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

7. I wish they had a Tim Horton's here.

I have a craving for Tim Horton's sometimes and want to drive right to Canada...

[HEyHEY]

9. really?

I hate that horrible shit...except Bagatelles, which they don't sell in Western Canada for some reason. It's funny though, I have lived all over Canada, and Vancouver is the only place that doesn't have a Tim Horton's on every block, and people don't talk about it like it's life blood. It's just cause we are a coffee culture...coffee snobs if you will. What do you like there?

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

17. I just like it

better than Dunkin Donuts crap we have in the US.

[HEyHEY]

18. Most Canadians I know

GO bonkers of Crispy Cream

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

20. I don't have a Krispy Kreme where I live

I'm in the section of ny that is in between the realm of Tim Horton's and the realm of Krispy Kreme- so we have Dunkin Donuts. I hate that place. :shrug:

[flamingyouth]

2. Mmmm, Aero bars

I stock up each trip to Vancouver...

[HEyHEY]

5. if you like areo

You gotta try coffee crisp then..deadly....who knew "Canadian Chocolate" would be a sought after commodity

[Fight_n_back]

3. Nestles is ubiqutous

they are the borg

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

6. You can get Aero

though *not* everywhere.

I get them at a local Irish store, but it's only open in the summer/fall. :(

[scarlet_owl]

8. Never heard of an Aero bar.

What is it like? Can't get it here in the midwest (that I've seen. I could be wrong).

[HEyHEY]

10. mmm Aero

you guys don't get smarties either?????

[scarlet_owl]

12. Oh, we get Smarties!

That's my dad's favorite candy! I get him a big bag of them every Halloween.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

13. our smarties

are different than yours.

yours:


ours:

[HEyHEY]

14. Really????

Wow, we call those...space tarts..or something, it's one of those things that no person has a real name for...
We have a saying up here

"all over it like a fat kid on a smartie"

As in, "When they offered me that job I was all over it like a fat kid on a smartie"

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

16. We say I'm all over that like a fat kid on a cupcake

:D

[Paschall]

21. Space tarts... LOL!

Sounds like Honey and Ginger on Mars. :-)

We called them sweet tarts.

[HEyHEY]

22. yeah but

aren't sweet tarts in a paper wrapper, and much bigger?

I'm kinda getting a candy craving now.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

23. Yes

Sweet Tarts:

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

11. They are chocolate bars

with little air bubbles. sooo good.

[HEyHEY]

15. I guess no KIT KAT, or WUNDERBAR either eh?

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

19. we get kit kat bars

:)

[bbernardini]

24. Wish it was easier to get CRUNCHIES in the States...

You can pay obscene prices for them at specialty stores. My wife ordered me a box from eBay. They arrived all broken, of course, but it's better than none at all. <Comic Book Guy> Best. Candy bar. Ever. </Comic Book Guy>

[HEyHEY]

25. you know what's better

IS this place in Whistler that makes a similar product...I think the inside of crunchie is called "sponge toffee" or something. But they make it and cover it with real milk chocolate..soooo good!

[never cry wolf]

26. Can't get Caramilk, McIntosh toffee or Malkins down here.

We go to NW Ontario every summer and stock up, especially on the Malkin's Jam, manna from heaven!!!

[HEyHEY]

27. jeez

no caramilk..then I shouldn't guess you know the secret!

[never cry wolf]

30. What secret??????

Brought back about 40 bars a month ago, all gone now. Still have 4 cases of jam tho.

[HEyHEY]

31. Of how they get the caramel...INSIDE THE BAR!

It's there old ad campaign and is now a running joke up here

[never cry wolf]

32. And......................

How was that???

[HEyHEY]

33. don't know

they've never told...bastards

[soleft]

28. someone brought me curly wurly's from the UK

They're like marathon bars, remember those?

[HEyHEY]

29. At a loss

Don't know either of them, but curly wurlys sound.....sugary
