Canadians show me some love:.)

Okay, A co-worker was visiting your fine country last week. While there, she saw a advertisement about a chocolate candy bar (?).

Women in the ad was eating it slowly to better feel the chocolate. The name is . . . aero. .. . tag line of something like to no air just ....


So, from the above can you figure out the candy bar?

thanx.

An Aero bar!!!!! They're great! The mint ones are fantastic. I had them when I was in London. You can find them in the British section of your local huge supermarket. If you live in Houston, Fiestas carry them. Additionally, you can order them from online stores. Search for "Aero Bar" in Yahoo Shopping and you should find references. Yum. They are great!

Did you really? That's so cool. You sir (or madam) are man (woman) of conviction! As I mentioned, I was in London a while ago, and I brought back a bunch of Aero bars for a friend's birthday. She was happy. Mint and chocolate were the only ones I saw. If there are more, let me know, I'll need to do some searching.

Up here in the Great White North they have dark chocolate or milk chocolate. I haven't seen the mint ones in a while.
I'm jazzlover, and I'm a chocoholic.

you have to try the Cadbury Flake.....


wow!

when i lived in Maryland my wife and I were positive that chocolate down there tasted different than chocolate back up here in Canada. So we conducted an experiment and sure enough, every chocolate bar we tried (same brands) one from each country, tasted different. We couldn't come down to what the difference was but the best way I could describe it was that the chocolate from Canada tasted a little butterier and 'smoother' for lack of a better word.

it was definately a FUN experiement though!

That's so true! The candy I got in London was completely different from the American versions. Even things like Snickers which carry the same brand and similar ingredient often taste quite different.
