WCIF Terry’s Chocolate Orange?

Folks, it’s getting to be the holiday season and I was fondly thinking about Terry’s Chocolate Orange.

Has anyone seen them in Taiwan?

I can order via Amazon, but would prefer to buy locally.

At the Tianmu Carrefour, I guess? Huh - I thought this’d be a ridiculously long-shot request.

Now I’m almost regretful that I don’t like the chocolate-orange combo.

got one in my fridge (well half of one now)

:bellhop_bell: :bellhop_bell: :bellhop_bell:

Got one :slight_smile: I don’t think I would have looked twice at them if @MalcolmReynolds hadn’t posted.

Do those things, like, taste good? :dubious:

This does not sound like the @afterspivak I know.

It was delicious.

Well, there are heaps of varieties of chocolate out there in Taiwan—amazing really. So I don’t want to waste my hard earned cash on a less-than-stellar product. :rofl:

Guy

I would say go for it

OK one further query: dark chocolate or milk? What do those who know recommend?

Guy

:ok:

I am planning my trip to Zhishan MRT Station as we speak.

I’ve also seen them in the Ximen Carrefour (couple of months ago). I’d go for milk.

I can’t believe I missed the lemon “variant.” (The whole wiki page for this product is something else!).

lol

Are you questioning Terry’s chocolate orange? Get back in your box :laughing:

So they are available eh.

Thanks @tempogain. I really appreciate it.

I’ll be making the jaunt to the Tanshui Carrefour and I’ll report back if I find them there, too.

Cheers everyone.

p.s. I’ve only ever had the milk chocolate ones, so I think I’ll give the dark a try as well. I think, 20 milk chocolate and 20 dark should be enough to pass around to my other family members here in Taiwan.

p.p.s. Now, I’ve just got to find me a carton or bottle of genuine egg nog.

The other one is Cadbury’s creme eggs.

They are, or were, only intermittently manufactured.

This was another good one

Great song about eating sweets

I always wonder if that one’s really about sweets.

A lot of people thought this one wasn’t at the time, but I think it just is.

No, they taste like overwhelming amounts of artificial orange flavor mixed with inferior chocolate.
