Ugh. What was I thinking? Why did I eat this?

Oh God, I never thought that they'd manage to find a way to bugger up the Kit Kat bar...

(Well, outside of the Kit Kat sold in Southern Europe. I have no clue of what sort of chocolate they're using over there, but it's bloody awful.)

It's got to be better than the vanilla flavour Coffee Crisp they had a few months back. Like, yuck.

Now, see, I liked those Vanilla Coffee Crisps. But then I also like Vanilla Coke.

A fine caramel is heavenly.

Most of the caramel in the candy market is dreadful goop, more suitable for crown work adhesive than consumption.

I'm sure there are very good reasons for it, all of them having to do with shelf life and packaging issues and manufacturing processes, and none of them having to do with taste.

And don't get me started on what passes for "chocolate" in most candy.
