Advantages: Relatively Cheap, unique

Disadvantages: unhealthy if eaten often

Maltesers theres only one phrase capable of explaining them ' mmmmmm delicious'. Invented by Forrest Mars Sr, the son of the orignally founder of the mars company, in 1936 then known as energy balls. They are now a common household name and im sure youll of enjoyed them at some point in your life. Maltesers consist of a honeycomb ball coated in milk chocolate, the same milk chocolate that surrounds mars bars and many other produce of the mars company.

So what's so good about them? Well for a start the chocolate used to surround them is some of the richest milk chocolate available, well discounting the 'posh' chocolate made by thorntons and similair brands. The creamy richness of the chocolate is a taste sensation and i much prefer it to cadburys milk chocolate. Infact it may even be the same as galaxy which is also produced by the mars company and is seen by many people to be the nicest milk chocolate. Also once you devoured the chocolate you are met by a crunchy ball of honecomb which tastes unlike anything else i know, this crunchy layer melts in your mouth similair to aero however since it is not chocolate then obviously less calories. Another great feature of maltesers is the price at only about 35 to 50p a pack this is great value as they often take a long time to eat if you let each one melt on your tongue.

However they do have their obvious disadvantages as when i said they had less calories than aero since they have chocolate they obviously have a high fat rating. 11.2g (total fat) and 7.2 (saturated fat) and as we all know saturated fat is the worst kind of fat. So only enjoy them once in a while

Summary: Another snacky food that shouldnt be eaten often
