Advantages: Easily assessible and reasonably priced

Disadvantages: Too moreish

Have you every had the sudden urge to have some chocolate or is it just me? I have days when I would never look at a chocolate bar but on other days I just get that sudden urge for the stuff. Well today was one of those days. I went to fill up with petrol and while waiting to pay, my eyes caught the sight of the chocolate bars and sweets on display. Trying to avoid the big chocolate bars by eyes caught sight of a packet of Minstrels. Now I haven't had these for a while and I thought with them being individual sweets I could have a few and save the rest for later. How wrong could I have been ?- Talk about being moreish! So much for the diet.

I bought a 42g packet for 47p. The packet was very easy to open and contained 16 shiny brown coated circular button shaped sweets. Now I'm not a chewer, I like to suck the outer crispy layer, which is quite sweet tasting, until it dissolves and then reveals the rich, velvety, smooth, thick chocolate. Yummy!

Needless to say I ate the whole lot - so much for my will power. Now for the bad news:-

Nutritional data per 100g - Energy 2110kJ
Kcal 503
Protein 5.1g
Carbohydrate 70.5g
Fat 22.2g.

These figures are quite high but they are for 100g not for the 42g packet I have just polished off but I still feel a little guilty as I am supposed to be on a diet. But they say " A little of what you fancy does you good".
This product also comes in a variety of sizes and packages including a pack of 4x 42g for £1.60, a 170g pack for £1.75 and a large 290g pack for £2.65.

Review also appears on Ciao.

Summary: A fantastic treat for chocoholics.

They are....lush. The only time I have these is at the cinema. When you're at the cinema, you have to follow tradition, right?? So chocolates, popcorn, drinks...I should go back to the cinema soon,
