Poundland? You must be made of money. Our town has a 99p store, I never shop anywhere else.

Just wait until Walnut Whips are filled with squirty cheese then. Or even this stuff:

The buggers who wanted to take Wensleydale cheese out of Wensleydale.
Which, I suppose, gives me carte blanche to slam them anytime I like.

I've decided to give away the remaining two Walnut Whips as Christmas stocking fillers for whichever brats annoy me the most between now and then.

No, I think it's just more dilution of brands to save money. Like how the choccy bars are shrinking in size so they can keep the price the same.
Eventually all the stuff on the shelves will be the brands we grew up with and loved, but will be poor imitations.
It's the kids I feel sorry for. They already don't know what an original recipe KFC tastes like since they mucked around with the recipe in the 80s after the Colonel sold up. Then there's all the changes due to health reasons and silly new laws banning certain substances.
I'd rather have genuine tasting food and risk cancer than put up with all this fake tulip.

Just had one and I'm not happy. They've changed the fondant so it's too light and fluffy, it's now like the froth on a cappuccino. No real substance.
Bite the top off and stick your tongue in to scoop out the white stuff?
Make you think of anything else did it ?
Pervert!

Spooky, thought I was going senile. Chocolate is like oversugared plastic and the cream just a load of tasteless fluff.
I even checked online to make sure Nestle were the only ones making them and it wasn't some cheapo version.
