Advantages: At least there is no peanuts!

Disadvantages: Too dry, poor packaging

I'm not sure what it is I don't like about the Twix. It has all the components of a great chocolate bar. Its got biscuit, caramel, and of course, chocolate. Yet there is something about the Twix which I find distinctly underwhelming.

I think it is because it tastes too dry for my liking. I prefer my chocolate bars to have a certain element of moisture to them. All the great bars have them - Mars, Double Decker, Twirls. The Twix just doesn't have that! The only way I can think of negating the dryness of the Twix is by eating it with a cup of tea, which is all very nice and civilised, but its just not practical if you want to eat on the go, which is when I consume most of my chocolate bars.

I'm not really much of a fan of the packaging either. The colour doesn't really do anything for me. The shiny gold is pretty brash. It is just ugly when you compare it to other chocolate bars on the market.

The edeeming features of the Twix is that by being largely biscuit based it offers something different to the confectionary market, and it coming in two seperate fingers is a nice touch. Sadly they still taste awful!

Summary: Theres nothing else quite like it, probably for a reason
