Despite an absence of popular demand, I’m creating the first inaugural TFK Top Chocolate Bar competition to elect our favourite bar. The winning bar will be consumed by me and will become TFK’s official chocolate bar for 12 months or so.
I’ve painstakingly but hurriedly collated a list of 32 chocolate bars which have been grouped into 4 pools. The top two bars in each pool and the top two third placed bars will proceed to the Top Ten round where it will be first past the post voting.
Each member username can vote 3 times in each pool.
Eligibility:
A few criteria for a bar to be eligible in this poll:
[LIST]
[]Only one bar of each sub-brand is allowed. So only one Kit Kat - that includes chunky and sticks. Cadbury will feel particularly hard done by here given their umbrella Dairy Milk brand extends to Golden Crisps etc.
[]Notwithstanding the above I’m allowing the Caramel bar to be included as well as the Dairy Milk. I feel it’s different enough and marketed distinctly enough to merit inclusion.
[]The bar must be chocolate coated - that excludes the Nougat.
[]I have just remembered that the Tracker Bar made my list despite not meeting that criterion. I’m not changing it now so that’s another exception.
[]The bar must be a bar, not a packet of sweets. So no Rolos.
[]The bar must not be at the Chomp price range. The lowest I’ll take in value is the Curly Wurly or the Fudge. They were >10p when I was younger. A 10p bar is a different beast altogether.
[]Similar to the above - the bar must not primarily exist in multipack form. So the Snack is in the competition, but it’s mostly the yellow Snack we’re talking about here.
[]The bar must have been readily and commonly available in Ireland during the 1990s and must be readily and commonly available today.
