Montezuma - Lime & Sea Salt

[silver minion]

I am not too keen on moderation or portion control either.

Me too. Like most of us I suspect. Good intentions but subject to human fallibility and plain old greed.😱

The thing with Ferrero Rocher is.... why would you pay all that money and have to unwrap them and eat the wafer shell thing when you could just buy a jar of Nutella and stir in a few chopped nuts if you like and eat it with a spoon, which is what I used to do.

Because a jar of Nutella and some nuts don't look as appealing when the "ambassador" hands them around

Thank you @Lisa and @Sharron1 but there's no way I'm paying £4.95 (Montezuma) or £6.69!!! (GrapeTree) delivery for a £3.49 bar of chocolate. I just want to add one bar to my supermarket shop, as I eat very little chocolate and don't even know if I'll like it.

I'll try the cherry one if Waitrose deliver it in my area - why they do the delivery service from our small limited-stock local branch at all I cannot fathom. Many a time I click on an item only to find when I log in that "this product is not available at your store"

I don't buy them, but usually get given at least one box a year by lazy-minded relatives. Plus then there'd be a jar of nutella and packet of chopped nuts sitting in the cupboard uneaten for years intil they went off and got thrown out.

Only works if you eat way more chocolate than I do!

Not Montezzuma but, has anyone tried Morrisons' The Best chocolate? They do a 72% and a 85% version (As well as lower % flavoured ones).
The reason I mention it is that today is my "internet birthday" - the day I give shops, etc. when they ask for my birthday and I don't want to share personal information - and Morrisons have given me a bar FOR FREE.
So, if anyone likes it or wants to try it, sign up with their loyalty card and tell them your birthday is next month (even if it isn't) and they give you a bar to try.

M&S Sparks also give away a birthday present but I suspect the choice of chocolate biscuits or grapes won't appeal to low carbers. But I'm taking the biscuits.
No birthday presents from Sainsburys or Waitrose though!

Oh my, a while ago I read on the site about Montezuma chocolate Lime & Sea Salt. I bought some today. OMG it is so so good, it shouldn't be allowed.

There's so many delicious flavoured chocolate out there now, good to see that many have a high cocoa content.

Got to be honest I just like chocolate, dark milk white it doesn't matter, my fav by far is Galaxy chocolate.

Could just eat some for breakfast now lol

I'm glad that someone else on this Forum is a Milky Bar Kid! How about Caramac?

Not really chocolate but it is delicious. Don't see it much now but I ate it quite often as a child.
One of my friends is allergic to cocoa so can't eat chocolate but she can eat caramac.

My name is Elaine and I’m a hopeless chocoholic! I don’t feel guilty about this, I eat chocolate every single day. More than once in fact. Life is for living, and eating chocolate.
Just discovered this thread, loved the sound of the lime and sea salt chocolate. So I’ve taken myself into Grape Tree today and bought a bar, and the ginger one. Pleased to see it’s only 9 grams of carbs for 25 grams of chocolate. Six squares if you’re wondering, I weighed it. I popped it into the fridge for 10 minutes, I love cold chocolate. Bit into my first square, a familiar taste but couldn’t quite put my finger on it. Gave Mr Eggy a teeny tiny piece, begrudgingly, his thought was old fashioned chocolate limes. Ate the rest. Conclusion, Cif! Can I just say I’ve never actually tasted Cif but it’s what I imagine it to taste like. Will I eat the rest? Of course I will! Maybe the ginger one will be more to my taste though!

Amen to that @eggyg

Ooh, the ginger chocolate sounds good.
