But don't you think this might be a case of 'absence makes the heart grow fonder'?!! Percy Pigs are quite nice though...... (but not Aeros or Kinder bars - I can't see the attraction there!)
I will say you are right, But there is not a candy bar with the consistancy of an aero here in the states, As for the Kinder eggs, kids here in the states don't watch what they eat so they would choke on the toys that come in them... At least that's what they say.... Silly American kids...
if i go through all this time... and cost.... to track down these two forms of happy foods, and i find them not to my ?fancy i will personally...hunt every one of you down ... .. . .. ... and offer you the rest of the boxes that i purchased in the anticipation that i couldn't live without them are they really that good.. i will have to try them out the nearest you say is NYC? or amazon?
I'm not sure about NYC, so don't take my absolute word for it, it's been a while since I've been and idk if teyll still have them. If only American kids could look at what they're eating, they could be graced with the marvelous tastes that are known as kinder suprises.
Kinder Eggs! LOL!! As Bill Bailey would say - "Crap Chocolate and Crap Toy" - a double whammy of disappointment. The ads in the 80s, with the freaky egg thing - crikey, I still bear those mental scars today.
While these are all English treats, I've seen quite a few of them in my local "high end" candy shops. The chocolate that is, the Percy Pigs are non-existent in these parts.
LOL... No I don't. I honestly have never seen them, in fact the only time i've seen flake or aero bars was while stationed in the uk. Then again I haven't looked that hard. But deff not @ my local supermarket.
I used to live in England and I am going back at Xmas! Percy pigs, here I come! Also, I seem to remember that there was something else in the same line to foods. Ah well only 2 weeks to go.
kinder eggs weren't bad chocolate! I used to love those. Once or twice the toys weren't bad, and in the giant kinder egg I got a chicken that when you pulled a lever in the tail it pooped out little eggs. Probably the best kinder toy I got
I got a package from family in Brighton yesterday. Along with a nice Xmas card came a special treat - 4 bags of Percy Pigs! YAY, I'm set for at least the next week.
