McFlurry® Mini Moment of the Month {TWO}

 

No I’m not chatting about Mini McFlurry’s®, although I kind of feel they would take off! I am going to try the promotional Limited Edition McFlurry® from Maccy-to-the-D’s (McDonalds®…) every month and give a mini review about it! Prepare to be emersed in Registered Trade Mark symbols!2012-10-27 15.48.13

The new promotional McFlurry® at Maccy’s this time is Nestle KitKat®! For those that do not know a normal KitKat® is 2 wafer fingers covered in milk chocolate. A KitKat-McFlurry® consists of nuggets of the wafer-chocolateyness covered in milk chocolate scattered within the icecream and swirled with Nestle chocolate sauce.

I cannot say I did a screech of joy when I heard that this was the promotional McFlurry®… Mainly because I am not a massive KitKat® fan really. Don’t me wrong, I am often partial to a KitKatChunky- Peanut Butter® every now and again! But the thought of bits of boring wafer floating wrong in cold ice cream did not fill me with anticipation and longing.

And… To be honest… I was about right. Chocolate goes hard in ice cream!!! And this was no exception!! And when that happens I 2012-10-27 15.48.37instantly lose interest. If I have to work my nashers to munch on cold chocolate I am somewhat less than amused. And to be fair, the chocolate sauce was not much to write home about either. Maybe this could have been helped if it looked a bit more appetising.. who knows. For £1.39 what do you expect, I suppose…

Needless to say I will not be purchasing this cheap-sweet-treat again! Give me a Cadbury’s Crunchie® McFlurry® anyday!!

THEY’RE BACK!?

 

First thing’s first, I know this is not pudding, but I couldn’t quite contain my excitement. I was shopping in Asda today and gazed my bored hating-the-public eyes over these WONDERFUL nuggets of happiness!

Do any of my lovely readers remember these!? I was literally thi2012-10-07 14.24.57nking about them only the other week because as a child I <3 these!!!

According to Wikipedia (Oracle/Guru/Only-encyclopedia-you-will-ever-need) They were first launched in 1991, discontinued, and then relaunched in 2004. They were only re-re-launched again in August of this year!

WHERE HAVE THEY BEEN HIDING!?!

For those that do not know, Vice Versas are sort of “Minstrel” like in comparison. There are white chocolate centres with dark chocolate shells, and literally vice-versa dark chocolate centres with white chocolate shells!

If I am honest, they do NOT taste the same. One of those, “I remember these being much better”. BUT the fact is, they are back!! I just wonder how long they will be back for?

Dear readers, what “retro” or long gone sweets/chocolate/candy would you bring back?
