Advantages: None

Disadvantages: Taste, too many!!

Introduction

These just happen to be lying around in our fridge because my brother likes them. I saw them and decided to tell you all what I think of them!!

Well I don?t like these, I don?t like these one little bit, well actually I do like one little bit - the chocolate on the outside, but I am a chocolate lover, so it is my duty to love it!! But I hate the middle!!

I have a pack of eleven in front of me, god that is too many!! But at least they are only snack size!! Normally I would say the bigger the better, but that all changes for now - the smaller the better!!

* * * * *

What it is

Well I have clearly stated that bounty?s are: Horrible!! But seriously they are small (should be small anyway) pieces of coconut wrapped in a chocolate shell, now I hate coconut so I do hate them, but if you are a coconut lover, like my brother, then these are probably for you!!

* * * * *

Taste

Ahh? the taste, the best part - or well it should be, but it isn?t, would you believe!! But if I correct it, then the opening sentence would be:

Eww? the taste the worst part!! Well, the outside is a chocolate shell so that simply tastes of chocolate!! And the inside is coconut, so that simply tastes of coconut!! So that pretty much sums up the taste, oh! One last thing: Did I mention it?s disgusting?

* * * * *

Packet

The main colours are blue and white - with the front being blue, with word BOUNTY spread madly over the packet - which clearly states what they are called!! In the bottom right corner it says 11 snack size bars.

On the bottom it has the usual nutrition, ingredients, contacts, as I said the usual!! The main colour for the back is white with black writing.

* * * * *

Nutrition

Per piece

ENERGY 563kj/134kcal

PROTEIN 1.1g

CARBOHYDRATE 16.1g

FAT 7.3g

These should be sto

red in a cool place, ours are stored in the fridge, and they seem ok, apart from the fact that they taste horrible!!

* * * * *

Contacts

If you wish to write to them, for any reason (the taste) then this is the address:

Masterfoods UK
Melton
Mowbray
Leicestershire
LE13 0BR

And then we have the, oh maybe not!! Where are they?! There is no phone number, or website address!! That isn?t very good is it?!

* * * * *

Conclusion

Well to sum everything up: The good thing about bounty?s is that they have a chocolate shell on the outside. And that would be the only good thing about them!!

But there are many downfalls.

1) The fact that there is coconut in there!!

2) There is no phone number.

3) There is no website address.

4) Taste HORRIBLE!!!



So there you have it, I recommend that you do not get these!! I give them one star!!!

I'm not too keen on Bounty bars, but they're far from horrible! Good review, though. :-)

Wonderful wonderful wonderful.I used to run down to the newsagents and get the Sunday papers for my folks,when I was a kid that is,and get 15p.Doesn't sound like much but a Bounty cost 11p then and you used to get a cardboard tray in the wrapper as well,as far as I can remember.Show my age though:(
Anyway,Bount ys were my favourite and I used to bite off the chocolate and get left with a piece of pure coconut to eat,sad!!

Trust Lac2 to lower the tone,eh!!BB
