I think they were always crap.
I lament the disappearance of Start cereal. And Lucky Charms.

They don't taste of actual chocolate
only chocolate 'flavouring', which is of course jst not the same.

They still have Lucky Charms in Ireland and America
BUT WHY NOT HERE?
(__, Sat 30 Dec 2006, 14:07, archived)

Because we have
'Sainsbury's triple chocolate crunch cereal' instead.

Oh yes.

That's only good with sugar on the top

Prezackly.
A box of them is about £6 in Cyber Candy. That can fuck right off.

Cyber Candy?

(Londingham ., Sat 30 Dec 2006, 14:11, archived)

Best not to ask
But I presume an online candy store?

I was thinking some kind of cyberpunk candy shop
in Camden Market
where all the sweets contain LEDs, and micro robots

This is a cooler idea.

You could probably do better
by developing, say, an electric flying car which runs on dog shit.

It is a shop in Covent Garden (I think)
that does import sweeties. Also has an online shop.

there's one in Brighton too.
ridiculously expensive, but they have an amazing selection.

I bought some peanut butter m+ms.
They were fan-fucking-tastic.
( spangolin - the odds are good but the goods are odd, Sat 30 Dec 2006, 14:18, archived)

they're pretty good
almond m&ms are the best.
dark chocolate ones are surprisingly good too.
( scott,, Sat 30 Dec 2006, 14:19, archived)

dark chocolate?
sounds promising.

They have REAL Mountain Dew.

( Bud Muhnquai Update your profile or fuck off, Sat 30 Dec 2006, 14:19, archived)

Is Mountain Dew a kind of lemonade?

( spangolin - the odds are good but the goods are odd, Sat 30 Dec 2006, 14:20, archived)

i believe i saw a Marathon bar in there last time.

( scott,, Sat 30 Dec 2006, 14:21, archived)

That must be pretty rank by now.

It seems that they're still 'marathons' in yankland

i think the marathon bar was from one of the colonies
south africa, or new zealand or something.
( scott,, Sat 30 Dec 2006, 14:24, archived)

that doesn't sound like the Snickers we have here.
Energy bar? Pfft. Chocolate and nuts, is what they are.

Might be a long shot
But if you know anyone who does contract work at US military bases or similar they may well be able to pick them up from the shop on the base for considerably less than buying online.
