    Sorry to keep on about when I was young, but the tins were twice the size they are now and one tin lasted the family over Christmas
    Is that not reflected in the price though? You can pick them up for £3 in the run up to Xmas, that’s the equivalent of what, 4 chocolate bars?

    So, much to the better halves displeasure.
    I've opened The 'Boxing Day Roses'.
    Guess how many have been eaten? 

    The answer is only 5 !
    Cheeky fookers.
    Reckon there’s only about 9 left in there after you had the first five!

    Note to team Quality Street. The 80s are over. It's okay to try some nice chocolates.

    Quality Street just ain't what they used to be since they got rid of the chocolate toffee

    Exactly this. 

    And I don’t like the wrappers on Roses these days either.

    Celebrations are the only ones I wouldn't want (Bounty). My oldest son likes Bounty, but knows we all don't, so keeps taking the others knowing he'll mop up at the end, prick

    None of the above. The M&S version. They have a decent coffee one.

    Love Quality Street but I get too involved. At half-term whilst away with the kids, a mouthful of toffee managed to pull out a filling the size of a dice. Haven't worked up the courage to visit the dentists yet and it's murder trying to avoid filling the gap with food. Note to self; avoid toffee and nuts over Christmas.
    And I rest my case, they should come with a serious health warning on the tin! 😉

    My Mrs many years ago used to empty the tin of quality street and count out how many individual sweets there were.

    Would have been Quality Street, but they sold out to Nestle.

    Given the choice, it's Quality Street.  Sadly, it's one compromise I have had to concede, so it's Roses in the Chizz household as usual. 
    We’ve all 4 in our house Chizz!

    Thing is with the Heroes and Celebrations, you can buy all them in full sized bars all year round. Nothing quite like tasting a Quality Street hazelnut cracknell to tell you it's Christmas

    Believe you me I’ve probably consumed enough of this kind of stuff in my lifetime to feed Charlton life, the homeless in London and the starving kids in Africa put together.

    But this year on a mish and have given them all a swerve what with turning Hawaii 5 0 and having a health kick, easily put on a stone over Christmas.

    Anyway just off to have some lentils and vegan sausage rolls, merry Christmas.

    From Heroes to Zeros Neil, come over to the Red side, celebrate and give those railings ruiners a run for their money, it's not too late to PM AFKA to switch your vote 😉.
